Consumer Description

I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO A LEXUS DEALERSHIP ON MARCH 15, 2013 BECAUSE THE ENGINE HAS POWERED DOWN WHILE DRIVING & THE CHECK ENGINE AND VSC INDICATORS CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY, THE CAR IS ALSO IDLING HARD. I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND IT WAS FOUND TO MISFIRE BY THE TECHNICIANS AT THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A MASSIVE RECALL AND THAT MY PARTS WILL NOT COME IN FOR EIGHT MONTHS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE WHICH IS WHY I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE COMPANY WILL NOT LOAN ME A VEHICLE WHILE THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT IS CORRECTED. *TR
