The median complaint arrives at 10.6 yr in service. The most-reported system is air bags (34 complaints), typically at 10.3 yr or about 140,000 miles.
DASHBOARD IS MELTING, VERY SEVERE. NOT ONLY A VISIBILITY ISSUE WITH THE GLARE BUT IT IS NOW DRIPPING INTO THE START ENGINE BUTTON WHICH COULD LEAD TO ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND BECOME EVEN MORE OF A SAFETY ISSUE. LEXUS DEALER SAID HE WOULD SUBMIT PICTURES AND GET BACK WITH ME. IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 10 DAYS AND NO WORD YET. *TR

WIFE WAS OPERATING THE DRIVER WINDOW IN OUR LEXUS ES 350. THE DRIVER WINDOW CRASHED DOWN INTO THE DRIVER DOOR PANEL MOMENTARILY STARTLING HER. SHE SWERVED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAD A TECHNICIAN PULL OFF THE DOOR PANEL AND THE PLASTIC MOUNTING TABS ON THE WINDOW REGULATOR AND THE PLASTIC MOUNTING TABS ON THE WINDOW HAD DISINTEGRATED. ACCORDING TO THE LEXUS OWNERS WEB SITE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON ALL 2007-2008 LEXUS ES 350 MODELS. LEXUS WILL NOT COVER THIS PROBLEM UNLESS STILL UNDER THE 4 YEAR WARRANTY. SEE RECALL 08V16200 FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS. *TR
