2005 Lexus ES330 Engine problems

My check engine light is on and when the diganoised code check is performed "no codes appear," but I do have a power steering leakage and I hear the power steering noise when I am turning and from the recall 11v53900 11/09/2011 engine and engine cooling its a huge problem. I call customer service and they where no help! I called for servicing and they stated on my vin there is no recall but on the nhtsa there pops up this recall so no cool. I am going to wait until something happens and sue the hell out of lexus...

The automobile seems accellerate just a little bit.When you are stepping on the gas it, kind of jumps forward some, without putting more pressure to the pedal.In motion at any speed.

Engine caught on fire. Was driving on a city street when I noticed flames shooting out under the hood.

On december 5th, 2012 around 1:50 pm in the afternoon, I drove the car to pick up our nephew from school. While I was slowing down and looking for a parking place suddenly the car sped up and accelerated! Even though I applied hard on the brake the car kept running very fast and only stopped when it hit bushes and the house on the right of the road. I was lucky that no kids came out from school yet and no other cars were nearly so damages only caused to the car and the property.

I received a safty recall notice from lexus indicating my engine crankshft pulley may loose and cause loss of power steering. I called lexus and they said I had to take the vehicle to a lexus dealer. Since there isn't a lexus dealer in my hometown they informed me that the closest dealers were at least 150 miles from my home.

Engine failure due to presence of oil sludge despite proper maintenance. *Tr

Vehicle hesitates terribly upon acceleration. I've called dealer numerous times and was told "this is normal" until the last call. Now lexus acknowledges the problem and offers a remedy! Fort myers dealer recalibrated the ecm and urged use of name brand premium fuel only! Since these two changes have been made, improvement has been made, but not eliminated.
