This Problem Across All Years
Issue number one the dashboard the steering wheel and the clutch handle for automatic or manual melts it gets extremely hot and slippery it burns no matter if you cover your car or anything it melts and the glare from it is very dangerous when the Sun hits the windshield while driving it makes it look like a mirror form I'm not the only one who complains about this issue because why does the dashboard melts and create a dangerous flare with glare excuse the heating and cooling seats I believe also I'm not sure if it's causing condensation because it's connected to the AC which is also an issue no matter how much you get it fixed like I'm not sure if the blend door actuator gets stuck but a lot of people complain about that too because I'm not the only one with that issue 3 the gas pedal gets stuck no matter how many treatments and maintenance and services you get done with your car that's still dangerous because I was driving one day on the highway and my pedal got stuck while driving I keep my car in tip top shape have evidence and all. The light fixtures also is an issue I'm not sure if they're supposed to go down no matter how many lights and replacements you do they still become dim which is dangerous at night while driving in the woods or on dark paths 4 the fuel system they tell to use premium gas which is 91 but then the dealers take to use 87 which causes a stalling on the I believe transmission which is also another faulty issue cuz no matter how many times you replace everything is still very faulty I ran into a lot of people and Friends who have the same issue and again I'm a person who take care of my car and 5 last but not least all the windows and sunroof keep opening which I didn't know was that supposed to be a feature.

THE ISSUE THAT I AM HAVING WITH MY 2007 LEXUS ES 350 IS WHILE IM IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY OR STREET BOTH OF MY HEADLIGHTS WILL SHUT OFF. I HAVE TO MANUALLY TURN THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND THATS WHEN THEY WILL COME BACK ON, IT HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES THE LEFT HEADLIGHT WILL TURN OFF AND THE RIGHT STAYS ON AND VICE VERSA FOR THE RIGHT OR BOTH. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I NEEDED THE HEADLAMP REPLACED BUT ONCE I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE WITH THE MAKE AND MODEL OF MY VEHICLE I REALIZED THERE ARE NUMEROUS OF INDIVIDUALS HAVING THE SAME DANGEROUS ISSUE WITH HAVING THE HEADLAMPS REPLACE THE ISSUE STILL REMAINS THE HEADLAMPS SHUT OFF COMPLETELY INHIBITING THE VIEW OF THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE BECAUSE OF THIS. IVE REPLACED HEADLIGHTS SEVERAL TIMES AND IT STILL HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE!!!

BOTH HEADLIGHTS GO OUT BY THEMSELVES WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES. THE DASH INDICATOR LIGHT SHOWS THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. MANUALLY TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS OFF AND ON GETS THEM ON AGAIN. VERY FRIGHTENING AND UNSAFE TO ALL OF A SUDDEN HAVE NO HEADLIGHTS. I HAVE APPOINTMENT WITH LEXUS TO FIX, BUT SHOULD BE A RECALL SAFETY ITEM.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SUPPOSED TO TRACK WITH THE DIRECTION OF MY I FRONT TIRES. FOR THE PAST 2+ YEARS MY HEADLIGHTS HAVE SPORADICALLY BEEN TURNING OFF. SOMETIMES IT WILL BE ONE LIGHT, OTHER TIMES IT WILL BE BOTH. I AM FORCED TO TURN ON MY BRIGHTS. USUALLY, I CAN IMMEDIATELY SWITCH BACK TO MY LOW BEAM AND THEY WILL COME BACK ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP SO THEY COULD CHANGE THE LIGHT BULBS. AFTER INSPECTING THE LIGHTS, THEY FOUND THE PLASTIC MOUNT WAS DISINTEGRATING. THE HEAT FROM THE HALOGEN LIGHTS WAS DETERIORATING THE PLASTIC. AS A RESULT, THE MOUNT WAS UNABLE TO TRACK. THEY DID NOT WANT TO ATTEMPT TO REPLACE THE BULBS BECAUSE THE WHOLE UNIT WAS TOO FRAGILE.

THE LOWER BEAM HID LIGHTS WENT OUT INTERMITTENTLY (SOMETIMES LEFT, SOMETIMES RIGHT FRONT-LIGHT). AFTER STOPPING AND TURNING OFF THE IGNITION, THE LIGHTS COME ON AGAIN AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE. A FEW TIMES, BOTH LIGHTS TURNED OFF AT THE SAME TIME, SO THAT I WAS COMPLETELY IN THE DARK AND I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR. AFTER I REPLACED THE BULBS, IT IMPROVED FOR ABOUT 6 MONTH. AFTER THAT, THE SAME PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN THIS CREATED SOME VERY SCARY SITUATIONS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENED WHEN I DROVE AT NIGHT ON A DARK FREEWAY WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC AND AT HIGH SPEED. *TR
