problem #1

Apr 252006

RX 400h 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,900 miles
: the contact stated the vehicle does not gear down while going down an icy road. There are no 1st, 2nd or 3rd gears. There is no way to stop the vehicle from hydroplaning. The dealership determined that this is the way the vehicle is designed to operate. The contact no longer owns the vehicle and feels this is a safety hazard. Updated 05/10/6.
