Lexus RX Sunroof exploded on it's own. I just left my driveway and was the only vehicle on the road. There were no projectiles, the sunroof glass simply exploded and glass flew into the air. if I was driving at 60 MPH, the exploded glass would have become a projectile and could seriously hurt a bystander. They were no warnings. I filed a complaint with Lexus Reference # 250820001020 but their response was that this was not a mfg issue. I pointed out that they are two class action suits on Lexus, but they insist that this is not a recalled part. This is a safety issue with glass flying at 40 to 60 MPH in the open air.

While driving on the freeway the sun roof "exploded" shattering glass out onto the highway. The noise was loud and frightening. Upon pulling over I observed most of the sunroof was gone with fragments of glass remaining along the edges of the roof. I believe this to be a major safety issue. If the ceiling cover had been open, the passenger in the rear seat could have been seriously injured. No doubt flying glass is a danger to any cars following. The vehicle was inspected by the Lexus dealer who declined to cover the damage under warranty. My insurance (CSAA) agreed to pay the cost of replacement. The glass shop which did the work indicated this is a manufacturing defect and indicated they replace 5-6 sun roofs a week.

gas gauge very inaccurate. manual calls for 'low fuel' at 2.6 gallons, actually comes on between 7 -8 gallons left in tank. Dealer accepts it is a problem but has no solution. attempting to get full range may leave car out of gas on highway, since gauge cannot be trusted.

We live on dirt road in Kansas, and must drive 2.5 miles to get to paved road. This RX 500h Sport does NOT have proper gaskets around the doors. We can actually see dust rolling into the front and back doors as we drive. We have had numerousLexus RXs,& GXs over the years and never experienced a dust problem at this level. Again, we can actually see dust clouds entering the car as we drive down our daily 2.5 dirt road trips.

I experienced a sudden release of toxic fumes from the vehicle between the steering column and instrument panel area on June 29, 2025, while driving. The fumes struck my face, caused immediate bitter chemical-like taste and made me feel physically ill and extremely concerned for my safety. The fumes were strong enough to leave a lingering taste described as “bitter and green” with initial symptoms of headache, lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting green substances, eye irritations, nose and throat irritations. The local auto dealership inspected the vehicle, no mechanical defect was identified, and they noted that they cannot reproduced the event that led to the release of the toxic fumes. However, the vehicle manufacturer took possession of the vehicle for 1 week to conduit further inspections

From last month, I am receiving a lot of messages on my IPhone that multiple rear doors are open, please check the doors. Over night RX2024H draining the Battery and a lot of time it shows on screen red. Today again it showed only close to 20% charge left. I took the RX to Roseville Lexus and they perform 10K miles service and advise me that this RX350H has issues with the notices sending to owner's cell phones. They advised me to delete my account and logoff on my cell for Lexus App. Now I am driving on GUEST Mode and it still has the Battery issue it is draining over night or when parked in the garage. Chris Lawson at Roseville Lexus told me last month that RX350H has this issue and when battery is dead and car won't start and they called the Lexus service and they sent the AAA and AAA guy. Some of them got more issues and Lexus is not covering it under warranty. When, I called Chris that my batter shows RED on charge and he said, if I want them to check the car dealer will charge $219 for trouble shooting. Please look into it and Lexus should fix the issues in their cars or fix the issues in the applications. it is not safe for driving. Any questions please call Chris Lawson at 916-472-7445 for more information. I have the pics but not able to attach to this complaint

I was trying to park behind a car. Slowed down the car. Just about 20 feet behind the car, the car suddenly started to accelerate. The speed was super fast. I had to step on the brake some hard to stop the car. Fortunately the car stopped just in time. No crash happened.

I am writing to report a serious safety issue involving my Lexus RX350. While driving on the freeway with my [XXX] child, I suddenly heard a loud explosion-like sound coming from the roof. To my shock, I discovered that the sunroof glass had shattered into pieces. Fortunately, the sunroof cover was closed, preventing glass from entering the cabin and potentially causing severe injuries. When I contacted my Lexus dealership, they acknowledged that another GX had come in just the previous week with the exact same issue. They insisted that a rock was the cause. However, I find it extremely concerning that a small rock could cause such catastrophic failure, indicating that the glass material may be dangerously flimsy. This incident has left me deeply shaken, as it could have resulted in severe injury or even loss of control of the vehicle. I am afraid for my safety and that of my family, knowing that this could happen again. I urge NHTSA to investigate whether this is a defect in the sunroof design or material quality, as it poses a significant risk to drivers and passengers. Please let me know if additional details or documentation are required. I appreciate your time and attention to this critical safety matter.

The fonts on the instrument panel are too small to read. Do not have this problem on current 2nd car or other cars driven.

Lexus is still not providing 2 key fobs on delivery. They are not listing the 2nd Key Program (23LJ01) as a campaign on their vehicle mobile software. The "digital key" is glitchy and not a safe and secure option - it seems to be a way for Lexus to periodically generate more profit at the expense of customer safety and security.
