I just purchased the car (my first Lex), for my wife, because I got it for $2500. It has some issues, but i figured it ran and drove nice so the issues didn't seem to be a big deal.
Here are my main concerns.....
The main key(w/ door lock button) was lost the day before I bought it....... can we replace it? Do we need a dealer or just some simple programming and a key from ebay?
Next... When the instument light dimmer switch is "not" locked into high (bright) position ...when the brake pedal is depressed the complete dash flickers, gauges, stereo, etc.... ? ? ? ?? ?? ?
Another problem is the led screen for the temperature panel went out, I do not know where the temperature is set.
not that it may be directly related but the car does have approx 158k miles.
Besides the above the car is great, some minor wear and tear but that is it. By the way you guys talk in here, these problems might be just some elbow grease and common sence to get fixed.
I sure hope someone has some input, because if I can make this a dependable car, I just might make my next new car a lex. I never knew Lexus had this kind of luxury. I went to a dealer and drove the new IS and I am in love with it.
Please help!!!!!!
