PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SENSOR ERROR CODE WAS DETECTED AND NOW AIRBAG LIGHT IS TURNED ON THE DASHBOARD. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND CALLED THE CORPORATE OFFICE TO HELP PAY FOR IT AND THEY DENIED THE REQUEST. THE DEALER IS CHARGING $1800 FOR THE PART AND $800 FOR LABOR. I JUST GOT MY TRANSMISSION REBUILT AND NOW DEALING WITH AIRBAG ISSUE. THERE'S BEEN A RECALL FOR ANOTHER AIR BAG ISSUE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHICH THE CORPORATE TOOK CARE OF THIS THEY WILL NOT HELP WITH THE OCCUPANCY SENSOR NOT WORKING. PLEASE ASSIST US ON HOW THEY EXPECT THE CONSUMERS TO PAY SUCH A PRICE TO DRIVE WITH WORKING AIRBAG. I BELIEVE THERE'S BEEN MANY ES350 2007 MODEL THAT'S BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS SAME PROBLEM AND I STRONGLY FEEL IT SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL.

"TAKATA RECALL" AS I WAS DRIVING THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE FLASHING LIGHTS AIRBAG OFF PASSENGER SIDE ON THE DASHBOARD. I WAS DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET.

2007 LEXUS ES350. CONSUMER WRITES ON REGARDS TO TAKATA AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. *LD

TRANSMISSION HAD ISSUES WITH FLARE AT SPEEDS OF 30-40 MPH ON A COLD START AND BROUGHT IT TO LEXUS AND THEY UPDATED MY ECU WITH THE SOFTWARE. AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK THEY HAD A JERKING/HESITATION BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME WHEN WHEN AT A STOP AND SLOWLY ACCELERATING. LEXUS RECOMMENDED A NEW TRANSMISSION, BUT I DID SOME RESEARCH AND LOTS OF OWNERS HAD THIS ISSUE FOR THE EARLY 2007 MODELS OF THE ES350. APPARENTLY LEXUS IS A WARE OF THE ISSUE BUT HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT.

AIR BAG NOT WORKING ON PASSENGER SIDE...RED LIGHTS FLASHING ON BOTH SIDES..TOOK TO LEXUS SERVICE FOR REPAIR....TOLD THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR AND THAT IS NOT CORRECTING THE MALFUNCTION .....I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SEAT AND IT WOULD COST AROUND $8,000.......THAT IS PROHIBITIVE AS THE BLUE BOOK ON THE CAR ....IN GOOD CONDITION...IS ONLY $9,000 TO $11,000. MY ONLY RECOURSE WOULD SEEM TO HAVE THEM DISCONNECT THE AIR BAGS AND I DON'T KNOW IF THEY CAN DO THAT ....I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN NEW MEXICO IN THE 80'S AND THE AIR BAG SAVED MY FACE AND EVEN POSSIBLY MY LIFE SO I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE WITHOUT THEM BUT I CERTAINLY CAN'T AFFORD A REPAIR OF THAT MAGNITUDE. I HAD JUST STARTED MY CAR WHEN THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET ON A STRAIGHT ROAD.

TAKATA RECALL: BASED ON THE LOSS OF UTILITY OF THE PASSENGER SEAT, LEXUS IS TAKING TOO LONG TO REMEDY THE AIR BAG PROBLEM. ALSO, LEXUS JUST ISSUING AN INTERIM NOTICE, WITHOUT A PLANNED DATE OF FIX IS UNACCEPTABLE AND AT A MINIMUM POOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS.

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG, PRODUCED BY TAKATA, AND THE MY LEXUS DEALER IN SCHAUMBURG, ILLLINOIS, HAS NOT CONTACTED METRO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG. I HAD FILED A COMPLAINT OVER THE PHONE WITH YOU IN FEBRUARY ( #10957566). CAN YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON AND HOW MUCH TIME LONGER I AM SUPPOSED TO WAIT...THIS IS RIDICULOUS !

"TAKATA RECALL LEXUS STATES THAT NOT TO HAVE ANYONE SET ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT UNTIL RECALL IS COMPLETE. HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSE TO USE THE VEHICLE LIKE THAT

TAKATA RECALL SINCE THE CAR IS NOT USEABLE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED (A 5-PASSENGER CAR), I AM ASKING FOR COMPENSATION FROM LEXUS OR TAKATA, AS THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE REPAIR CAN BE MADE IN ANY TIME FRAME. IT COULD BE YEARS BEFORE THE REPAIR IS MADE, THEREBY MEANING THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE. LEXUS OR TAKATA SHOULD PROVIDE MONETARY COMPENSATION TO MAKE UP FOR THIS. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT WE CANNOT USE THE VEHICLE, AND THE RECALL NOTICE WAS COMPLETELY USELESS, BASICALLY SAYING "DON'T USE YOUR CAR" (FOR WHICH WE PAID TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS). IT IS CALLING IT AN "INCONVENIENCE" WHICH IS NOT ACCURATE. THE ISSUE OF THE AIR BAGS HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND LEXUS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK ON A REMEDY. I AM HOPING THAT NHTSA CAN ASSIST IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU.

DASHBOARD MELTED. WHILE DRIVING, CANNOT SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AS A RESULT OF THIS UNSAFE CONDITION.

MELTING DASHBOARD EMITTING OUT POISONOUS SMELL, CAUSE MY THROATS UNCOMFORTABLE AND COUGHING. MY KID COMPLAINS ABOUT THERE IS ALWAYS SMELL IN MY CAR AND FELT DIZZY AND HEADACHE WHENEVER SITTING IN. NEED TO EVALUATE THE CHEMICAL RELEASED AND ITS IMPACT TO HEALTH.

TAKATA RECALL" AS OF JANUARY 20, 2017, LEXUS HAS YET TO GIVE A REMEDY TO THE PROBLEM RELATED TO THE AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL.

THE HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES IT'S THE LEFT HEADLIGHT AND SOMETIMES IT'S THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT AND OTHER TIMES IT'S BOTH HEADLIGHTS. IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT AND DURING THE DAY. NO WARNING NO INDICATION ONLY THAT THE ROAD GOES BLACK. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING IT HAPPENS SUMMERTIME AND WINTER TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THEM ON IS TO TURN THEM OFF AND ON. THE PROBLEM OCCURS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IS IN THE ON OR AUTO POSITION. PROBLEM IS CONTINUAL.

MY 2007 LEXUS ES 350 IS UNDER RECALL FOR A FAULTY TAKATA PASSENGER AIR BAG. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET A REPLACEMENT DATE FOR THIS AIR BAG FROM MY TOYOTA DEALER; I.E., LEXUS OF WAYZATA, 16100 WAYZATA BLVD., WAYZATA, MN 55391, (952) 475-6111. I UNDERSTAND THAT HAVING AN OLDER MODEL VEHICLE PUTS MY PASSENGER AT GREAT RISK TO INJURY DUE TO THE DETERIORATION OF THE PROPELLANT. THE SUGGESTED REMEDY OF NOT USING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SEEMS HARDLY REASONABLE FOR AN UNKNOWN LENGTH OF TIME. I SHOULD AT LEAST BE GIVEN A REPLACEMENT DATE OR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE.
