My car is exhibiting signs of a failed brake actuator. Since I drive well below the average number of miles a year Lexus is refusing to cover any repairs of this brake actuator issue that is a know problem as described in your bulletin L-SB-0009-23. Lexus offered 100% coverage on this for up to 10 years or 150,000 miles, again since I drive so few miles I was 1year 9 months outside the coverage window. They refuse to assist with any of the repaid cost estimated at $6,600. They have essentially left me with an unsafe automobile on a technicality.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
