CONSUME STATED THE TRUNK WOULD NOT STAY UP, AND IT CAME DOWN FAST CAUSING INJURIES. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.*JB
2001-11-30, Tires
BOTH RIGHT SIDE TIRES DEVELOPED 2-3 IN. "BLISTERS" IN THE OUTSIDE SIDEWALL, APPARENTLY AFTER HITTING EITHER A CURB OR POTHOLE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY NEAREST LEXUS DEALER (ALBUQUERQUE), BUT LEXUS WOULD NOT REPLACE THE TIRES EVEN AFTER I INFORMED THEM OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH AUDI TIRES. I EVENTUALLY REPLACED THE TIRES MYSELF AT A COST OF $400. *AK (TIRESIZE: 215145ZR17)
2001-08-20, Vehicle Speed Control
DURING ACCELERATION, THE AUTO LOSES ALL POWER WHILE HOLDING IN SECOND GEAR - AS IF SOMEONE HAS PUT ON THE BREAKS - AND THEN GOES TO FULL POWER AFTER SHIFTING INTO THIRD GEAR CAUSING THE SEATBELTS TO LOCK. IF SEATBELTS WERE NOT WORN, RIDERS WOULD BE FORCED INTO THE WINDSHIELD.*AK
