I have a Lexus 350 bought in 2013. I love it!!! However, I think there is a potential danger in one of the features of placement of *****!!! The ignition round button to the right of the steering wheel and the **** for the radio are too close together and I have twice now pushed the radio button thinking I had turned the ignition off!!!!!!! There was extraneous noises from a lawn mower and I just went inside and left the car running.

I was shocked when I came out an hour later and found the car running. I believe the two buttons, probably the ignition button should be placed in another area higher, lower or someplace away from the radio button. Now I realize if I had locked the car it might have sounded an alarm, but not sure. Sometimes it is not necessary for me to lock my car and I just push the button and go inside. I am now very nervous and feel stressed about pushing the wrong button and always going out to re check. Would appreciate your feedback on this for what I think is a design problem and could cause a dangerous situation. Thank you so much. This note.

My turn signals were driving me crazy with the incessant click, click, click pounding in my ears every time I turned them on. I took my car to the dealer and he recommended changing the directional fluid. It wasn't a warranty item so it cost me $376 but it was worth it. Now I can drive in peace.

You could have saved a LOT of $ by going out to the local private-plane airport and picking up a bucket of prop wash. That works much better than directional fluid.

You should now look up the good reviews. You will find that there 100 good reviews to every 1 bad one.
