We expect the 2025 ES will be more reliable than the average new car. This prediction is based on data from 2022, 2023, and 2024 models and the Lexus brand score.
The Reliability score is based on our latest subscriber survey of 2023 Lexus ES owners. The owner comments describe problems respondents experienced with this vehicle.
Squeaks, rattles, wind noises, seals and/or weather stripping, air and water leaks.
