RX 330

  • miles
My 2004 Lexus RX330 is jumping all over the road, repair shop diagnostics show the ride height control and air ride struts have failed causing an unsafe condition, apparently Lexus was fully aware of the issue only making this model year with the air ride control and knowing the system will only last ten years before failure. I guess they figured after ten years most vehicles would have either installed the conversion kit or have been sold forward so many times that new owners would not pursue a safety recall. An entire industry has been created to deal with the issue retailing conversion kits so much so that my Toyota repair shop has suggested installing the conversion kit which they offer. My vehicle bounces when navigating turns and bumps, while sitting still the vehicle raises and lowers independent of anything manually initiated and side to side lifts and lowers.
