I OWN A 2001 LEXUS GS300. I BOUGHT IT NEW. MY COMPLAINT IS ABOUT THE DESIGN OF THE TRUNK LID. EVERY TIME YOU OPEN IT, IT WILL NOT STAY UP IN A WIND OR WHEN PARKED ON A HILL. IT HAS COME DOWN ON MY HEAD MORE TIMES THAN I CAN COUNT. THE LAST TIME WAS TODAY IN A WIND. IT CUT MY HEAD. I HAVE TALKED TO THE DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND HE SAID THAT IS THE WAY IT IS DESIGNED AND TO GET A STICK TO HOLD IT UP. THE FIRST DAY I OPENED THE TRUNK WHEN I BOUGHT IT, IT CAME DOWN ON MY HEAD. I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF A CHILD GOT HIT BY THE TRUNK LID. *JB
