The bass of the speaker in the rear of the car is malfunctioning. I have heard from other owners of this year / make that this is an issue for them as well. Specifically, the speaker needs to be replaced or repaired because of the wobbly sound it makes

LS 430

The trunk struts failed to support the trunk and slammed shut as I was retrieving groceries out of the trunk. It left a very nasty bump on the back of my head. It no longer supports the trunk lid weight at all. It is dangerous and I must always hold it open with one hand and the trunk is heavy. I have bumped my head and hands multiple times when the trunk comes down.
