What owners report
My vehicle has the V6 twin turbo engine thatâs been recalled on other years and models and was diagnosed with an internal engine failure. The mechanic at the dealership couldnât figure out the problem so an expert TAS Lexus specialist was called in and couldnât figure out the problem either. Theyâve had the car for 3 months and since they donât know how to fix it they are telling me to just replace the engine with a used engine at a cost of $25,000.

OEM Bridgestone Turanza EL440 RFT 245/45 R20 These tires have not retained recommended air pressure for more than a few weeks at a time since new. Inspection earlier this year by a Bridgestone dealer found no problem with a tire that had lost 5 psi in a week. The tire subsequently began making a rotational noise that the Lexus dealer diagnosed as a slipped belt. Having replaced the defective tire, I now have the same noise symptoms arising in another tire. The dealer can find no reason for the chronic air loss in the two left side tires which, given the developing rotational noise, I expect will soon have similar belt failure. Dealer personnel admit that these tires are problematic. Bridges
