TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 LEXUS GS 450H. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE ENGINE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MAGNUSSEN LEXUS OF FREMONT (LOCATED AT 5600 CUSHING PKWY, FREMONT, CA 94538, (510) 657-6600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.
MY 2007 LEXUS GS450H IS NOT HAVING ALL CYLINDERS FIRING AND HAS ENGINE POWER LOSS. I CALLED OUR LOCAL LEXUS DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE'S NO RECALL OF THIS KIND OF PROBLEM. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE'S A CERTAIN RECALL DESCRIBING EXACTLY WHAT MY CAR IS DOING. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 10V309000- TOYOTA RECALLS 2006-2008 LEXUS MODELS DUE TO POSSIBLE ENGINE PROBLEMS DUE TO MICRO-FOREIGN OBJECTS IN THE VALVE SPRING THAT CAN CAUSE IT TO BREAK. THIS COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO FAIL SUDDENLY, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
