I am reporting a safety-related violation. The dealership told me the vehicle had only a minor accident with no airbag deployment. This was false. Carfax shows the vehicle actually had a major accident with airbag deployment, which they failed to disclose. This misrepresentation affects the safety system, airbag sensors, and the ability of the airbags to function properly in future collisions. This nondisclosure is a serious safety concern and fraudulent practice. I am requesting NHTSA to review this as potential safety fraud involving failure to disclose a prior airbag deployment.

THE CAR ABRUPTLY JERKS FORWARDS OR SLOWS DOWN WHEN SWITCHING GEARS. THERE IS A KNOCKING SOUND WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. THE RPM INCREASE TO 6K-7K BEFORE THE NEXT GEAR IS ENGAGED AND THEN CAR ABRUPTLY THRUSTS FORWARD. THE CAR ACCELERATES AND DECELERATES RANDOMLY. THIS CAR CANNOT BE DRIVEN SAFELY IN THIS CONDITION. THE CAR ONLY HAVE 1116 MILES AND IS A 2019 MODEL.

2019 MODEL LEXUS R350L ARE INSTALLED WITH LOW EFFICIENCY "FUEL PUMP SYSTEM" AND THIS IS A RECALL FORM THE MANUFACTURER. STILL THERE IS NO REMEDY ?? *TR

At the initiation of braking effort by pressing the pedal, there is a noise. This noise goes away completely beyond a point of compressing the brake pedal and even before complete braking. Lexus dealer said it was brake actuator. Repairing it is labor intense and costs $3800. However not a safety concern and can be driven. He did offer to do regular maintenance of topping off fluid, multi-point inspection, tire rotation package. I saw there were recalls and complaints about the same problem with other year's Lexus models. Can you investigate this and let us know if we can avail a recall fix for this? Thank you for your time.
