NX 300

  • miles
I am writing to express my deep disappointment with the service I have received regarding my 2021 Lexus NX 300, which I purchased pre-owned in October 2022 with approximately 8,000 miles. I trusted in Lexus's renowned reputation for luxury, dependability, and premium comfort. However, my experience with your service department has significantly diminished that trust. Since my initial report of a recurring issue with the braking system on [XXX], 2023, where I heard a cracking sound in the tire and brake area as if the brakes and wheels were about to fail, I have made multiple visits to the dealership. These visits include: [XXX], 2023: Initial concern reported. No findings were made. [XXX], 2023: Returned to the dealership, noise was noticed, and advised that the braking pins required replacing. Left the dealership with a louder noise issue. [XXX], 2023: Christopher Villacreses acknowledged a few complaints regarding the braking system but stated there was no solution and no recall on the vehicle. When questioned about persistent issues, he advised to bring the car back but was unsure if it would be covered under warranty. [XXX], 2024: After filing a complaint with Corporate, Tim, the Master Technician, was assigned to check the vehicle. I was provided with a loaner car for a week. Upon returning, no explanation of the problem was given, despite my deep concerns for my family's safety. [XXX], 2024: Following a complaint with NCDS, Lexus replaced all brakes on the vehicle. However, the problem persisted and seemingly worsened. Despite five subsequent visits and repeated attempts to address the issue, including replacing the brake kits, pins, and all four brake pads, the problem remains unresolved. I am in fear that my brakes may fail while driving, potentially causing injury to my family or others due to this defect. I feel manipulated by the corporation's lack of transparency regarding the issue, and I no feel safe. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
