My check engine light is on and when the diganoised code check is performed "no codes appear, " but I do have a power steering leakage and I hear the power steering noise when I am turning and from the recall 11V53900 11/09/2011 engine and engine cooling its a huge problem. I call customer service and they where no help! I called for servicing and they stated on my VIN there is no recall but on the NHTSA there pops up this recall so no cool. I am going to wait until something happens and sue the hell out of Lexus for refusing to service my vehicle and neglecting the issues when I called and all the calls are recorded. Trouble & horrible service I am not a satisfied customer. I guess you need to be in certain financial bracket to receive exceptional service.

The automobile seems accellerate just a little bit.when you are stepping on the gas it, kind of jumps forward some, without putting more pressure to the pedal.in motion at any speed.
