Consumer Description

A TOTAL FAILURE OF MY TRANSMISSION LEFT ME STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY, NO WARNING, NO SIGNALS, JUST QUIT. I'VE DRIVEN TOYOTA PRODUCTS FOR 30 YEARS AND SEVERAL OVER 200K MILES AND I'VE NEVER HAD SUCH A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. THE COST TO REPAIR IS $4000 FROM THE DEALER. THE SAD THING IS THAT I JUST PAID THIS VEHICLE OFF LESS THAN A WEEK AGO. AFTER SEARCHING MANY FORUMS OF LEXUS OWNERS I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THE EARLY RX300S WERE ALL SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS FAILURE., WHY HASN'T AND DOESN'T LEXUS ADMIT THIS FAILURE. LEXUS HAS JUST LOST LOYAL CUSTOMER FOR THEM AND TOYOTA PRODUCTS. *TR
