I was driving down the highway having just picked picked up thiis car I just bought from the dealership when suddenly I heard a loud expolosion up above and noticed my sunroof exploded sending pieces of glass into my car.

Upon approaching my car, in a controlled parking lot (car is stationary), I noticed the rear portion of the panoramic sunroof appears to have exploded. Sunroof shows defective bubble, and outer-edges appear to have cracked all the way around. Investigation of the area around the car shows no foreign objects (ie. Rocks) in the area.

The windshield cracked two times within two years. First time, there was no visible sign (or noise) of any rock hitting windshield as I parked the car in sun. When I came back to parking, the windshield was cracked and the crack extended in length as I drove. It costs me $500 in insurance deductible for geico insurance to have windshield replaced. The windshield again cracked in april 2019 the second time when I was driving on interstate 10 at about 50 miles per hour. I saw a tiny mark on one edge of windshield...

Nav system will not take me to my home address - my development was started in 2003. My street in not available and the nav system disables me from typing the street name. Just moved to a new state and need to be able to put in 'take me home'. I have contacted the dealer (wilde lexus, sarasota, fl) 3 times - they claimed to have ordered a new disk but I feel I am getting a run-around since the disk does not show up - have been driving the car for a little over one year - I hate it.

The pre-collision system does not work properly. The car rear ended the vehicle in front of it without warning and brake assist by pre-collision system as lexus claimed. It resulted in an accident. Lexus has performed the investigation and extracted data from edr. They concluded no defect found.

This needs to be fixed immediately!!!! This happenes at anytime whether driving or stationary.

The tach and speedometer fade during day sunlight to the extent the reading cannot be determined. When the sun reflects on the on those two items they fade and cannot be read, creating a safety hazard; the occurs when the vehicle is stationary and in motion and occurs on city streets and highway. It also occurs when turning and braking. The fading of the tach and speedometer display cannot be read under the above conditions when the sunlight enters the car. Since you cannot read the speed markings when this happens it is creating a safety hazard and a legal liability for he driver.
