Consumer Description

COMPLAINTS REGARDING 2007 LEXUS IS 250: 1. STEERING WHEEL STICKS WHEN TURNING TO THE RIGHT. THIS OCCURS 3-5 TIMES PER WEEK AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS AND COLLISIONS. 2. WHEN APPLYING PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR JUMPS FORWARD AND ACCELERATES. THIS OCCURS 2-5 TIMES PER MONTH. THIS HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME TO REAR END OTHER CARS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. 3. CAR FLUTTERS AND STALLS WHEN REVERSING. ( CAR IS AN AUTOMATIC) CAR ALSO FLUTTERS WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. CAR DOES THIS WHEN ITS HOT OR COLD. THIS OCCURS 5-10 TIMES PER MONTH. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE LEXUS DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE ABOVE ISSUES, AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING. THESE ISSUE OCCUR VERY FREQUENTLY AND THE DEALER SEEMS TO NOT BE ABLE TO "FIND" ANY PROBLEMS. I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN ACCELERATION ISSUE, AND WAS INSTRUCTED TO REMOVE MY FLOOR MAT. NOTHING ELSE HAS BEEN DONE AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN NO HELP. I AM CONCERNED THAT THESE ISSUES WILL HARM OR EVEN KILL MYSELF OR MY FAMILY AND OR ANOTHER DRIVER OR FAMILY ON THE ROAD. *TR
