NHTSA Complaint #11175800 — 2006 LEXUS RX HYBRID

MY 2006 LEXUS RX400H THAT I JUST PURCHASED A FEW MONTHS AGO FROM A LOCAL DEALER (ONE OWNER PRIOR) HAS SHUT DOWN GOING DOWN OUR MOUNTAIN. TAKING MY BOYS TO SCHOOL IT JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AS WE COASTED DOWN OUR MOUNTAIN, AND THE BRAKES JUST STOPPED WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO MY NEIGHBORS' DRIVEWAY AND BARELY ABLE TO USE MY BRAKES. THEY DIDN'T WORK WHEN THE HYBRID LIGHT CAME ON. EXTREMELY SCARY! IT HAPPENED A FEW TIMES PRIOR TO THIS IN THESE LAST FEW MONTHS, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AGAIN PREVIOUSLY. IT'S NOW A BRICK WITH A DASHBOARD OF LIGHTS! I AM BEING TOLD BY LEXUS THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE INVERTER RECALL AND IN FACT, THEY CLAIMED THAT THEY ALREADY REPLACED IT PRIOR TO MY OWNERSHIP A FEW MONTHS BACK, REPLACED IN 2012, LATER TO FIND OUT THAT WAS NOT TRUE. I HAVE THE SERVICE RECORDS FROM THE FIRST OWNER. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR. IT HAD TO BE TOWED FROM MY NEIGHBOR'S HOME ABOUT 500 FEET DOWN OUR MOUNTAIN, BACK UP TO OUR HOME ABOUT 500' BACK UP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WAS EITHER NOT RECALLED OR NEEDS TO BE FIXED AGAIN AFTER THE RECALL. PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE. I WILL HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE MECHANICS WHEN THEY OPEN. SOME PHOTOS OF MY DASH, ANY SUGGESTIONS? LEXUS NEEDS TO PAY FOR THESE REPAIRS. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE! THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO MY NEIGHBOR'S DRIVEWAY. I CAN'T IMAGINE HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT LEXUS WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. PLEASE REOPEN THIS CASE AND INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER IN THIS RECALL.
