Consumer Description

MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON THIS CAR ON THE FREEWAY LEAVING ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH MY 8 MONTH OLD CHILD. THIS TRANSMISSION WAS JUST REBUILT A YEAR AGO. YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE THAT THIS ISSUE IS BEYOND PREVALENT. STORIES AND COMPLAINTS ABOUT EARLY TRANSMISSION FAILURE ARE ALL OVER THE INTERNET. YOU ARE PROBABLY ALREADY AWARE. SO IS LEXUS AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WILL SOMEONE HAVE TO GET KILLED BEFORE YOU DEMAND A RECALL? ME AND MY BABY COULD HAVE VERY EASILY HAVE BEEN KILLED YESTERDAY. *TR
