Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THERE WAS A STARTLINGLY LOUD NOISE FROM THE BACK, UPPER LEFT PART OF THE CAR. AFTER REACHING OUR DESTINATION WE REALIZED THE TOP MOLDING ON THE QUARTER REAR DRIVER-SIDE WINDOW HAD RIPPED OFF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON DESIGN FLAW, BASED ON LEXUS CHATS. THIS SHOULD BE A MANUFACTURER COVERED DEFECT EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS DANGER IF THOSE HIT SOMEONE OR SOMETHING. *TR
