problem #2

Feb 102011

RX 400h 6-cyl

  • 51,000 miles
Component: Electrical system:alternator/generator/regulator summary: At a steady rate of speed on the hwy, the car surges and pulls and is impossible to maintain a smooth ride. When braking experience short bursts of acceleration. I am concerned as this seems to be leading to an inverter failure.

problem #1

Feb 062006

RX 400h 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 8,000 miles
The vehicle surges at a steady speed. I am most aware of the surging at 35-45 miles per hour. This did not happen until the vehicle had approximately 8,000 miles on it. I have been told there is no repair available and the Lexus is aware of this problem.
