2012 Lexus IS250 Problems, complaints & recalls

The dashboard is sticky/melting causing it to be extremely shiny. It is available for inspection upon request. Due to the shininess of the dashboard, it causes a glare on the windshield during the daytime. This glare causes difficulty with being able to safely see through the windshield.

I own a Lexus 2012 IS250 and currently active duty member stationed at Aviano Air Base, Italy. I was not notified that my vehicle is overdue on a safety recall until today when I am trying to ship the vehicle back to the US. What further actions can I do to get the recall done? Can I get the vehicle waivered to get the recall accomplished when it reaches the US?

While stopped at a stop light vehicle RPM went very high. It reached the red zone. Vehicle started moving forward (while still on Drive and the brake pedal fully pressed). I immediately put the vehicle in Park. RPM continued to remain high. I removed my foot off the brake when the vehicle was in park. I turned the engine off, waited couple of seconds and turned it back on. At that point everything worked normally. Outside temperature was about 38 deg F. Car was not fully warmed up at the time. Floor mat had...

Vehicle in motion going 80mph on highway when suddenly jolted and vehicle did not respond to accelerator and check engine/battery lights all came on and slowed to a stop. Restarting engine did not work as it sputtered and went back to idle immediately. Fuel tank was 1/4 full, not due for oil change for another 4000 miles, tire pressure was fixed a day prior to incident, and no other problems with the vehicle. Car towed to toyota dealership where they tested and said fuel pump malfunction. Toyota and lexus already have 2 million cars with fuel pump recall, however my specific model is not included yet.

Lexus is250 has a melting dashboard and it's really hard to drive when the sun is out ... It glares out your vision when driving ...I was researching and saw some people got a recall for the melting dashboard since it's really unsafe to drive it with the dashboard starting to melt .. In the picture I added you can see how my dashboard is shiny because its melting and sticky too

The top convertible motor got broken about two years after I bought it so I went back to the dealership and luckily it was under warranty so they replace it but now the one they put on that time now it's broken again and they want to charge me to get fixed.

My 2012 lexus is250 has sticky dashboard and door panels. The dash is wet with a sticky like substance which also causes a glare and stains anything that touches the surface. The door panels are peeling horribly and extremely soft to touch. Bumping your finger on the door panel leaves fragments of the door panel under your nails. Also any part of the dash as well. This dramatically drops the appearance of the interior and is a must fix. I don't understand why they only did the recall on 06-08. It was like such when I bought the care in 2018 with 59k mileage.

I was rear ended by a car at a high rate of speed and pushed into the car in front of me. None of my air bags deployed.

Takatabrantakata recall my vehicle was rear ended at 34 to 50 miles an hour. The vehicle behind me impacted me so hard that it pushed me into the vehicle in front of me and in turn she hit the vehicle in front of her. There was damaged to the front and side panels of my car as well. The air bags failed to deploy. I sustained and suffered injuries. This occurred on a busy city street while at a traffic light.

Door locks not working properly. Both front door actuators need to be replaced which we were told is a very common problem with this model. This has been unsafe for our teenage driver having to crawl through back doors to unlock her vehicle especially at night.

Dashboard coming apart clue seeping they dashboard sticky

Unintended acceleration while inching into parking space at very slow rate of speed. Engine raced unexpectedly and car jumped curb with all 4 tires, across a small median, and down another curb with 3 tires, striking a parked car, which stopped forward motion.

This is the third lexus I have had that the automatic door locks don't work. All 4 actuators are bad after I even had one replaced. I have had this happen I all three lexus' that I have owned. I have talked to lexus about this and the service people say that they see more than they should go. Bad boy. Lexus/toyota does not think it's a problem. This becomes a safety hazard locking the doors manually and having to open one door with a key and reach around and open the others as needed. Specially with all the crime around us. I would like to see either toyota or lexus step up and admit they have a problem and fix them.
