“I had my foot on the brakes waiting at a red light. The car just started jerking back and forth. It didn't stop until I released my foot off the brake.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Sep 2026
“I am filing this complaint regarding my 2024 Lexus TX. A road rock/debris entered through the vehicle's factory front grille and struck/punctured the A/C condenser, causing the air conditioning system to stop functioning properly. The repair cost is approximately $2,500. The factory grille has large openings that leave the condenser vulnerable to direct impact from normal road debris. Lexus does not have a protective screen or guard that can be installed to prevent this type of damage. This design flaw has affected many other Lexus TX owners and I think they need to offer up more protective measures to avoid this from happening over and over again.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Aug 2026
“The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 500H. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 MPH, the vehicle drove over glass in the roadway that struck the air conditioner condenser. Approximately two weeks later, the air conditioner failed to blow cool air. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was determined that the A/C condenser was damaged by the debris, causing a coolant leak. The dealer stated that the condenser needed to be replaced. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Action Number: DP26006 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 37,000.”Owner report · Visibility · Aug 2026

“The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 500H. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed the "Hybrid System Malfunction" warning light illuminated. The contact stated that several days later, a secondary warning light illuminated for the battery failure. After the third failure, the "Hybrid System Malfunction - Contact Dealer" message was displayed. Additionally, the vehicle failed to start and was jumpstarted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer on several occasions for the hybrid battery and related electrical warning failures. The contact stated that there was excessive heat inside the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 21,000.”Owner report · Hybrid Propulsion System · Jul 2026
“Strong smell of gas coming from around the car and near rear end of car. Usually after a drive. The smell does not happen after every drive. I brought up the smell to my husband a number of times within the year...and finally took to JD Auto in Arizona in June but the gas smell could not be replicated and no source or defect could be visually seen. No recall for this has been reported by Lexus. dealership. No check engine light has been recorded. Worried that there is some internal issue that could cause huge problems. I do have children who have also reported smelling the gas in the back seat.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Jun 2026
“On two occasions while driving my hood has become open due to windy conditions coming from the Makua side of the highway as I'm driving on the Queen Kaahumanu Highway Today was the second incident except that I was heading south The first time that happened I was driving north and it occurred probably about a few months ago, but I dismissed it I know for a fact that I did not open the engine compartment I will download my front camera files and see if I can find a record”Owner report · Latches/Locks/Linkages · May 2026
“I have 2024 Lexus TX 350 and the winshield cracked from the smallest rock and spread across the entire winshield. Seems to be a flaw in material.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · May 2026
“The vehicle's lower front fascia exhibits a design flaw, creating an unsafe gap that permits road debris to impact the condenser, leading to air conditioning system damage. This compromise in the A/C system's functionality results in an inability to adequately cool the vehicle's interior, thereby creating potentially unsafe operating conditions, particularly in high-temperature environments. It has been observed that dealerships are declining warranty coverage for these repairs, and the manufacturer has not provided any countermeasures to address this inherent design deficiency.”Owner report · Engine · Feb 2026
“Odometer Fraud: The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 350. The contact stated that a mileage discrepancy was discovered. The vehicle was a dealer sale. The contact discovered information indicating that the vehicle was a cloned vehicle. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 39,000; however, during a service appointment, it was discovered that the vehicle mileage was 41,800.”Owner report · Electrical System · Dec 2025
“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.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Sep 2025
