Backing out of driveway (in motion) into a city street, car stopped abruptly and would not start again. Immediately warning lights vcs, brake and ABS showed on panel. The ABS control module was replaced 6/25/20 costing me $2,708.36 (invoice attached). In March (03/06/20) I paid $2,014.96 for tires and brake replacement (invoice attached). That's a total cost of $4,723.32. I feel scammed because I think the brake job in March created the problem for the ABS to malfunction and it should not have been my responsibility to replace it. Please reply if possible. I'm reporting issue to Lexus Corp also. I read on a post that the ABS module rarely needs replacing. Thank you for your help.

Lexus issued a recall for several interior parts on my make and model of vehicle as well as others for several years that were made with a faulty interior product which actually melts. There are a couple of parts made of the same material doing the same thing that were not included which I believe should've been. As you will see from the pictures these items are also melting. I have reached out to Lexus but they advised they would not be willing to assist. This was a $70K car. Please help in making sure the manufacturer takes care of this. The steering wheel center is also melting and sticky as well. The date entered below is approximate because it has been happening of a course of time but that's approximately when it first started

(hesitation on acceleration) this morning going to work L notice that the car wasn't acting right. I was at the yield left turning lane was turning right before other incoming car come. As I was turning the acceleration didnt go no where as it feel like the car was going up a very high hill. I was so scare that another car coming stright and hit me and some how the acceleration just pick up and start going as it has no power to it. The only reason why im reporting this is because this is a very and could be an dangerous problem not to myself but other to and I have search up this problem on the web and there alot iof people that have this problem beside me. Is there anything your can do to resolve this problem? I dont want to have to drive an Lexus and have to deal with this headache.
