I got brakes put on at the lexus of palm beaches off of okeechobee blvd last year and paid over 475 dollars for all parts. As a result 7 months later my brakes began to squeak so i called them and i was not assisted with new parts except just brake spray which is not good. The parts are defective and i have a 1 year warranty which ends in one month which i feel that is why they dont want to fix it until the waaranty is up

Preparing to stop while entering access gate slowing to around 10 - 15 mph, after applying brake car accelerated forcing me to reapply brake again and shifting to park. This is the first time that this high level acceleration has happened although before i have noticed occasionally a low level acceleration when preparing to stop. *tr

While car newly made remote key crank car that had been sitting without being driven 30 +days , i crank car and alarm sounded and flashing lights came on and would not turn off when car key taken out of ignition. Then the car began to crank all by itself without the key even in the ignition!!! I unhinged the battery cables and the car wrnt dead. Also smoke was coming from back engine area!! I towed car to lexus dealer and they replaced the starter. The gear shift locked and the car drove for about a month whe check engine light came on reporting electrical/oxygen sensor code. The car started making a clicking chirping low sound coming from behind dash board. I reported it to lexus dealer service a again but nothing done about it. An outside mechanic said it could be an electrical problem or faulty alternator.

I have been having acceleration when i brake,going from 10mph to 60mph in seconds. *js

The abs will activate below 5 mph when coming to a stop. The car will have little stopping ability and abs will activate. The road surface is dry and clear of debris. *tr

I stopped at a traffic light and all of a sudden my car started to accelerate, i pressed the brake real hard but the car lunged forward ahead. Quickly, i put it into neutral. It continued to accelerate to over 7500 and then went back down. Luckily no one was in front of me and the person at the intersection saw what was happening and he swerved away. I was able to drive it home. In my 45 years of driving many different vehicles, this has been the most scariest feeling. *js
