Unknown or Other · at 3 miles · reported Jan 13, 2020
While driving my 2014 lexus rx350 at 60mph on interstate I-10, my sunroof suddenly exploded outwards! No signs of road debris nor any other vehicles in vicinity after stopping, it was clear that the remaining glass showed that there was no impact and the glass shattered outwards. When investigating online, I noticed that this could be the result of a defect known by the auto industry including toyota/lexus. I AM thankful that the interior shield for the sunroof was closed for the shattered glass could have entered the passenger compartment with possible injury.
Power Train · at 70,000 miles · reported Jan 12, 2020
Car had 70,000 miles and the transmission went out. Car was having issues with cranking, getting error codes for technology, and car sounding loudly and skippong along with not changing out properly. Dealer never found a problem, beyond technology, until the transmission went out. Dealer agreed to pay for new transmission 1 year warranty but not labor. Car would hesitate to start and could have broken down on highway had I not densnd an inspection again, one week after the dealer claim my car was fix and it was only the battery.

Seats · reported Jun 28, 2016
Vehicle taken in for emissions test/renewal in march 2016. After work completed, made several stops and "drivers" seat setting (#1) would not return to original exit setting that I had programmed. The steering wheel always moves into the driving position, but the seat would not.
