So u didn't bust the 2 tires and you are saying the dealer blamed you, you called Lexus corporate and they sided with the dealer?

Sounds like maybe a valet person mighta fudged up the car and placed the blame on you?

You said 2 fights, any other loaner issues?

Something here is bull****. You don't drive a car off the lot and not notice two busted tires. It's not like a scratch or something.

Uhhhhhhhh...this whole thing sounds very odd

Agreed. Combined with the terrible typing with the "ur" and all, it makes you wonder how this guy got in to a GS in the first place. Who gave it to him?

I call your story bull......Lexus service dept usually gives ppl the benefit of thedoubt especially if they demand money for damanegd loaner....I think you burned those tires out and they had concrete evidence that the tires were spun on purpose and burst. How old are you? Ive never heard of two tires SIMULTANEOUSLY busting....only if they were being spun and heated up and wore down and just couldnt take the constant spinning. The odds of two tires busting in that short a time after u picked up the car for no reason other than a defect in the tires are next to NIL.

On the one hand they should give you the benefit of a doubt, but my gut feeling is that they saw those tires were abused by you.

Well since you're asking for opinions:

This sounds way fishy to me too. Sounds like someone ran the crap out of the loaner thinking, heck it's just a loaner. Then pleads ignorant when the damage is discovered.

I agree, and what kind of lexus dealer would shamefully produce such a loaner?
