2024 LEXUS TX Unknown Or Other Problems

The AC stopped working and now they are charging me to replace the condenser which is located right in the front behind the grill. They said it was damaged from a rock that hit it. There are thousands of these vehicles that have this poor design where all these condensers are getting hit and having consumers pay for this damage because it is not under warranty. These should be recalled or repaired for free as it is obvious there should be some kind of screen to prevent this as the grill gives no protection.

I was driving on a highway around 65mph, about 1:30PM on May 11, 2025. The temperature outside was about 70 degree F. I heard a very loud noise like a big firecracker exploding. Then I heard the sound of air coming from the sun roof. I opened the sun roof door and found the sun roof was shattered and had a big hole more than a foot in diameter. If I didn't close the sun roof door, I could had been injured by the exploding tempered glasses from the sun roof and lose control of my SUV. I drove to the Lexus dealership and leave my car there overnight since the service department was closed on Sunday. The Lexus service advisor will call me in the morning. I googled the topic about "Lexus sun roof exploding while driving" and found many Lexus car owners had the same problem as mine....

My Lexus TX 500h has an intermittent problem. It seems to have trouble shifting between 1st gear and second gear. Sometimes when I try to drive from a stop, the car will go a tiny bit and then feels like it switches into neutral instead of the next gear, leaving me stopped in the middle of traffic or an intersection. I have been stuck pulling out of my street onto a busy street with traffic bearing down on me. I have also started rolling backwards on a hill when my foot is on the gas and the car is in drive. It seems that the car puts itself into neutral vs second gear. I have taken it into the dealer twice for this and they “cant duplicate the problem” so tell me to go home and bring it back if it happens again. It keeps happening and it’s a huge...

Severe safety issue! Pulled the vehicle into the driveway after a drive and put the vehicle in park and turned the car off. With key still in the vehicle, exited vehicle, closed driver door and went to open drivers-side rear passenger door where 2 year old baby was in car seat. Before being able to open the rear door, the car went dead and locked down all the doors (key is still inside the car). Could not get into car through any of the doors, including rear hatch. Tried the manual back up door handles (since this vehicle has electronic door releases), but none of them worked. All the while, baby is crying in the car and it's more than 85F outside. In panic, call Lexus roadside assistance. They advise that help may take 90 minutes and with baby in vehicle, we should call 911. After call to 911, fire...

On 3 different occurrences. Regarding rear-left gate foot sensor. Vehicle rear lift-gate as closed when feet are planted on ground while unloading groceries from the vehicle. This claim has also been confirm with dealership as Diagnostics Technician was able to duplicate issue. First incident hit spouse on the head. Second time hit myself. 3rd was able to dodge lift-gate closing down. Treasure Coast Lexus Diagnostics technician advised to disable feature and when needed to enable. That doesn't resolve the safety issue as the occurrence of lift-gate closing could still occur when feature is enabled. New vehicle purchase 5/21/2024. Its at dealership waiting for repairs.
