Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE HAS A PROBLEM WITH RANDOM HARD DOWN SHIFTING WHEN IT IS ALMOST STOPPED. THE HARD DOWN SHIFT WILL HAPPEN AND THEN VEHICLE WILL LUNGE FORWARD. I DID SLIGHT RUN INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENED IN A PARKING LOT. THIS COULD BE POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS IF THE LUNGE WOULD HIT A PEDESTRIAN OR CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO ENTER HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE REPORTED THIS MANY TIMES TO THE LEXUS DEALERSHIP, WHO IS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE RANDOM NATURE. *TR
