Consumer Description

ON JANUARY 13, 2010 WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR LEXUS ES 300, THE CAR ACCELERATED AS SHE WAS ENTERING A PARKING SPACE, CAUSING THE CAR TO COLLIDE WITH A POLE IN THE PARKING LOT. THE DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE (LEXUS OF LOUISVILLE) WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT CLAIMED THE CAR WAS NOT ONE OF THE MODELS RECALLED. WE REPAIRED DAMAGE TO THE BODY AT A COST OF $2500, BUT ARE NOW CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. *TR
