problem #1

Feb 202012

IS 250

  • Automatic transmission
  • 29,000 miles

Without any notice, one day I realized that I could only roll down the front driver's side window but not the passenger side. Or I couldn't roll down the back windows, different sides at different times. With only 29,000 miles on it and being a single person who doesn't have small children playing with them, I was shocked! And it was so random with all the windows at different times. My front passenger side window actually came off the track and broke. $350 to replace!

It always felt like an electrical problem to me. Sometimes the wires made a connection and sometimes they don't. After having my car serviced at Lexus for one of my regular visits, a few years later... the windows seem to work better. Very strange!! I believe it was after they had it in the shop for one of the recalls. This is just one of 3-5 electrical issues I seem to have with my Lexus IS250.
