WE TOOK THE CAR IN BECAUSE WHEN THE CAR IS COLD IT DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING AND GETTING WORSE SINCE IT WAS THERE FOR A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE. DEALER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM STATING THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER SHOWS NO ERROR CODES, WHILE IGNORING THE FACT WHEN YOU SHIFT FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE THE VEHICLE JERKS AND THE GEAR LEVER REQUIRES A LOT OF FORCE TO MOVE INTO DESIRED GEAR. DEALER REFUSES TO REPAIR THE CAR OR ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, INSTEAD THEY TRIED TO SELL ME A $875 OIL CHANGE. DEALER IS ALSO REFUSING TO SEND ME ANY PAPERWORK THAT MY CAR WAS THERE EVEN AFTER CALLING MANY TIMES TO REQUEST IT, THEY PROMISE TO SE

ON A RECENT 2500 MILE TRIP ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE ON INTERSTATE HIWAYS AND PASSING A VEHICLE THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED AUTOMATICALLY WITH WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZERS GOING OFF. THIS OCCURRED WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES ANYWHERE AROUND FOR A QUARTER MILE OR MORE. ON ONE OCCASION IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING IN THE RIGHT LANE AND WITH NO VEHICLES IN SIGHT. LEXUS SPECIAL TECH INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND HAD SOME CALIBRATIONS PERFORMED BUT THEY WILL NOT TELL ME WHAT THEY FOUND IN DATA CAPTURED BY THE VEHICLE COMPUTER OR WHAT ACTIONS THEY TOOK AND WHY THEY THINK THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

VEHICLE VIBRATES WHEN BRAKING, BRAKE PEDAL PULSATES AS WELL WHEN BRAKING, SUCH DECREASING THE ABILITY FOR VEHICLE TO STOP APPROPRIATELY. EVERY 6,000 MILES ROTORS WARP BADLY AND NEED TO BE CHANGED WITH NORMAL DRIVING HABITS. LEXUS MUST RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE ROTORS AS THEY COULD AFFECT THE ABILITY FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP
