Default BSM System Failure

The right side BSM sensor went out with 1500 miles on the car. Dealer said there were none in the country. After a week, now say that one will be available for installation on Dec. 13.

What ever happened to Toyota/Lexus quality?

If it's any consolation, the ES350 is Consumer Reports highest rated Large /Upscale Sedan for Reliability. The 300h is 2nd highest rated Hybrid/Electric car, close behind the Prius.

It doesn't mean that nothing will go bad, but might give one a little confidence in the vehicle.

Sorry for old thread revival -

Rear independent HVAC controls. Currently the front right and left are independent but the rear passangers are virtue on the front settings. On my LX, the rear passangers get their own settings (would have loved to have this on my ES300h).

I have the same issue with the door on my 2014 ES300h..
I'm certainly interested in a solution. Is this an issue with all vehicles?

Have Es300H 2014 (only few weeks with it , 350 miles).
1. Don't like that navigation display does not have option to display current speed and permitted speed on the screen like my Garmin GPS does.
2. If any of my contacts have more then 3 phone numbers stored on the phone (Iphone or Android), phone pairing only downloads the 1st three phone numbers.
3. Voice recognition needs a lot of improvement. In its current state, it only works half the time.
4. No 12 V connection near dash for external dash mounted GPS / Radar / electronic device.
