Consumer Description

THE CARS INTERIOR MELTED AND HAS BECOME NOT ONLY A NUISANCE BUT HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE. THE MELTING OF THE DASHBOARD CREATES A BRIGHT REFLECTION IN THE WINDSHIELD WHOLE DRIVING MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. FURTHERMORE, THE MELTING OF THE PLASTIC GIVES OFF A CHEMICAL ODOR THAT MAY BE HAZARDOUS. LASTLY, THIS IS CONCERNING BECAUSE IT MAY EVEN AFFECT THE FUNCTIONING OF MY AIRBAGS. LEXUS DECISION TO PUT OUT A TSIS AFTER MOST PEOPLE'S WARRANTIES BECOME VOID IS IRRESPONSIBLE AND MORALLY CORRUPT. ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. THERE ARE NOW CLASS ACTIN LAWSUITS AND THOUSANDS OF OTHERS WHO SIGNED PETITIONS AND COMPLAINED ONLINE, ALTHOUGH NOT THROUGH THIS SITE BUT THAT SHOULD NOT MATTER. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW LEXUS TO GET AWAY WITH THIS. *TR
