Consumer Description

BATTERY FAILED TO DISCHARGE IN NUMEROUS OCCASIONS (STATIONARY-PARKED AT MY RESIDENCE-28,012 ML ON THIS 2008 ES 350), REQUIRED TRIPLE AAA CHARGE. LEXUS SERVICE CENTER STATED "I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY & ALTERNATOR." I HAD THE ALTERNATOR & BATTERY REPLACED ON 12/15/2018 (NOT CHEAP). THEN ON 02/17/2019, I HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, BATTERY NOT DISCHARGING. FYI, THIS IS MY 2ND LEXUS. 1ST LEXUS OWNED WAS A 1991 ES 250, NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH THAT CAR UNTIL IT REACHED 117,000 MILES. THIS IS TOO STRESSFUL. WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH LEXUS (TOYOTA). THEY ONCE WERE THE BEST CARS ON THE ROAD???????
