I am having issues with my brake actuator and abs system. Lexus had a warranty campaign for this issue with the prior generation 07 to 10 lexus ls460 yet this issue persists with 2013 ls460 .They are aware of this problem my car had almost no braking ability and it is unsafe to drive to add insult to injury the so called fix cost $8000. Other lexus ls460 owners have complained about this problem and have expressed their concerns in the lexus forums and blogs these complaints are in the thousands.

This is a whistleblowing complaint against toyota motor corporation so please re-direct my communications as appropriate. After i pointed out to lexus corporate in writing their car seat installation instructions in the owners manual for the ls460 was incorrect they acknowledged it was incorrect and advised me to strap my child's car seat in a different way. This is all documented in email. This communication took place approximately 5 months ago. They are required to notify all owners of the incorrect car seat installation instructions in the manual but they have not. I am a registered owner of my lexus ls460 so would have received a communication regarding the correct child car seat installation instructions if they notified anybody. I am concerned for the safety of the children of other lexus ls460 owners. I also retained two messages on my home answering machine that corporate lexus left me regarding the car seat installation discussion as evidence of our verbal discussion to support the emails.

The sunroof exploded while driving down the highway with no one near us. . Sounded like a shotgun blast. Pulled over to find a 10" diameter hole in the sunroof. The visor was closed and was full of glass fragments, but was not damaged, indicating an outward explosion. No marks or scratches on car. Very scary. Contacted dealer about warranty, and was declined.

3 sets of brakes and 3 other brake repairs in 24,000 miles, beginning within 3 months of ownership. Lexus says that this is a "normal operating characteristic of the vehicle" after we asked them to fix them, and went through their lemon law process. Brakes either squeal loudly or grab tight and shudder.
