Consumer Description
HAD TO MAKE A HARD STOP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FADED BADLY. PEDAL HAS BECOME SOFTER OVER TIME. ALREADY HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE FAULTY DESIGNED REAR PADS AND FRONT DISCS. LEXUS HAS A TSB ON THE SQUEAKY REAR PADS BUT NEVER LET US KNOW. IT WAS A REPLACE ONLY IF OWNER COMPLAINED. 1 PAD WAS BADLY WORN, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND LEXUS WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. WITH ALL THE TOYOTA MASTER CYLINDER ISSUES UNDER RECALL, I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE OUR ES350 IS NOT EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING. EXPENSIVE FIX THAT WE CANNOT DELAY FOR SAFETY SAKE. ENGINE IS BECOMING NOISY. TICKING SOUNDS AT TIMES. *TR
