Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVE AT ANY SPEED OVER 40MPH, IF YOU LET OFF THE GAS THE CAR WILL BUCK OR JERK AND HAS ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION SENT THE REAR END OF THE CAR SLIDING OUT ON ME. THIS CAR HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR A LONG TIME AND HAS BEEN DEALER MAINTAINED SINCE DAY ONE, AND DRIVEN BY THE SAME(OLDER LADY AND FAMILY FRIEND) AND THEY NEVER MENTIONED THIS WAS ABNORMAL UNTIL I DID SOME RESEARCH (AND DROVE THE CAR MYSELF) AND FOUND THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE AND HAS A TSB ON IT. TSB#EG00396. THIS IS NOW A $4000+ DOLLAR FIX AND LEXUS WON?T COVER IT NOW BECAUSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY FOR THE TSB'S 5 YEAR 40,000 MILE WARRANTY ON THIS ISSUE. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THIS CONDITION BECAUSE THE JERK IS SO SEVER IT SOMETIMES CAUSES LOSS OF TRACTION ON THE REAR WHEELS. *TR
