Consumer Description

AFTER HAVING TO REPLACE BRAKE CALIPERS, A BROKEN KEY, AND THE ENGINE OIL COOLING PIPE (WARRANTY) IN THE LAST YEAR, MY RX 350 IS HAVING TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS WITH 136K MILES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A CAR WITH THE LEXUS NAME AND PRICE. THE CAR IS HESITATING DURING SHIFTING CAUSING ISSUES WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE NOT HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION YET, BUT WITH THE REVIEWS FOR SOME OLDER MODELS, I FEAR THIS IS COMING SOON. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED TO PAY THIS MUCH MONEY FOR A QUALITY CAR THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LAST 250K+ MILES, AND HAVING SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH JUST 136K MILES ON IT. IT DOES NOT LIVE UP TO THE LEXUS QUALITY REPUTATION!
