Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IN MY 2001 LEXUS RX300 AT 122,000 MILES. I ALSO HAVE A 1999 LEXUS RX300 WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 67,000 MILES. LEXUS DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THIS AS A DEFECT. WE WERE TOLD WE SHOULD HAVE REQUESTED A FLUSH OF THE TRANSMISSION FLUIDS AS IT IS NOT A ROUTINE SERVICE PROVIDED AND THAT IT IS ONLY DONE WHEN THE FLUIDS ARE DIRTY. HOW WOULD WE KNOW THAT? AREN'T THEY SUPPOSED TO DETERMINE APPROPRIATE SERVICES FOR THEIR VEHICLES? *TR
