Experiencing both the dreaded brake actuator assembly issue as well as the very common mark levinson amplifier issue, on model # 0w480. Was in conversation with lexus customer satisfaction and they are completely unwilling to step in and do the right thing in assisting me with either, or both, problems. I've owned this vehicle for all of 2 months, and although I understand that I bought it used, as-is with higher mileage, I think that since there was a recent warranty enhancement program issued by lexus on the brake actuator assembly, and also that the failed amplifier is a very, very…

Having problems with the brakes. When I press the bridal all the way down. There is a creeping noise coming from the brakes. Have seen numerous complaints of the same issue on lexus vehicles. Many states it's the brake aculator.

Brake caliber safety issue shouldn't have been a factory recall. I'm not happy whatsoever to have to pay out-of-pocket for something that lexus knows about
Service Brakes · at 84,000 miles · reported Aug 1, 2018
Brake system failure code 1391 indicating the brake accumulator and/or actuator, when applying brake front end shimmys to a point where control of car can be lost. Lexus extended recall to 12/17 however the problem is a definite safety issue and there are many complaints on line about this problem. The problem in most cases can arise at 80,000-up miles and cost is prohibitive at about $3500, this should have been a safety recall since there is so much documentation about this problem. I contacted lexus and they had no answer but to say the extended warranty is expired.
