1. Ignition System: While driving the key in the ignition lock came out loose! Exremely frightened and managed to pull the car over to a driveway. But, the car could NOT be stoped using the key fob. Key will not work to stop the engine. Very unusual and unexpected incidence. 2. Lighting system switch: Suddenly the knob of the light switch came out loose with a plastic shaft and will not turn on the light. Very unsafe while driving and it became dark due to storm and rain, and I wanted to turn the headlights for safety. I beleive it is a manufaturing defect and causes severe safety issue.

I HAVE HAD TO CONTINUOUS ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE SINCE I BECAME THE OWNER OF IT. #1 THE HEADLAMP GETS VERY FOGGY. EVERY 2-3 MONTHS I TAKE IT TO THE CAR WASH, THEY POP IT OUT AND CLEAN IT.

I HAVE HAD TO CONTINUOUS ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE SINCE I BECAME THE OWNER OF IT. #1 THE HEADLAMP GETS VERY FOGGY. EVERY 2-3 MONTHS I TAKE IT TO THE CAR WASH, THEY POP IT OUT AND CLEAN IT. I GET THIS DONE BECAUSE THE LAMP LOOKS VERY DIM WHILE I AM DRIVING IT AT NIGHT AND IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE SECOND ISSUE IS THAT THE DASHBOARD IS HEAVILY CRACKED TO THE POINT WHERE MY SON IS ABLE TO PICK OFF PIECES AND TRIES TO PUT IT IN HIS MOUTH. I AM AFRAID OF WHAT TOXIC CHEMICALS THE CRACKED DASHBOARD IS EXPOSING ME AND MY CHILD TO. I CALLED LEXUS TO GET THESE REPAIRED UNDER THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM AND THEY TOLD ME THAT BOTH OF THESE ARE NOW 1 YEAR PAST THE WARRANTY. I HAVE BEEN THE OWNER OF THIS CAR SINCE 2017 AND I NEVER GOT NOTICE OF EITHER OF THESE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENTS. BEFORE THAT MY DAD OWNED IT AND HE ALSO NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE. I HAVE FILED A CASE # WITH LEXUS [XXX]. THEY NOW TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN EXISTING FOR THE LAST 4-5 YEARS! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
