problem #4

Dec 162013

ES 350 6-cyl

  • 59,100 miles
While stopping for gas, tried to raise window to wash it and it came off track. Tried again and still off track. Managed to get it raised and in closed position but now the same thing will happen again as soon as I try to lower it.

problem #3

ES 350

  • 48,000 miles
My passenger side front window will not roll up properly. Apparently the plastic clip broke off and the entire window has to be replaced. This is definitely a defect by Lexus. I have seen a lot of complaints online about this. Lexus is charging 700 dollars to fix. I will not buy another Lexus or recommend one to anyone because Lexus should take ownership for this one.

problem #2

Sep 172013

ES 350

  • 65,000 miles
While driving on the highway at 60 miles / H my driverside window suddenly fell down which seriously distracted me and which almost resulted in a collision with another car. Feedback from Lexus is that the plastic tabs that hold the window disintegrate over time and as a result the entire window will need to be replaced. It's clearly a safety hazard and should pro-actively be addressed by Lexus.

problem #1

ES 350 6-cyl

  • 55,000 miles
I rolled down the passenger side window of my Lexus 2008 ES350 and the window came off track. The window jumped out of the track as I attempted to roll it up and appears to be falling off the car. This is a window that I seldom roll-down. I believe that due to this problem which I consider to be a safety hazard that the Lexus 2008 ES350 cars should be recalled.
