How's your door alignment?
Hey guys,
I've got 2 brand new GS and both have the same problem:
The front left door is about 1,5mm higher than the rear door.
Of course the clearance is all fcked up.
When I got the 1st one 2 months ago... I thought OK, might happen.
But now this looks like a "standard" now to me.
How is yours?

Here are close-ups of my driver's side door alignment where it meets the rear door. All aligned...

2nd & 3rd images - At base of side window glass

Mine is the same way. It's not the doors. Those are just trim pieces. No big deal.

Have a 14" and it's well aligned as it's suppose to be. You need to check with your dealer what's happening with your car. Btw just for your info someone has bought a brand new repainted GSF from the Lexus dealer which he found out after showing it to a detail guy. So get your car checked if something happened.

Many years ago one of my friends father bought a brand new Camaro and had it for many years without issues. After 10 years the paint started fading and showed body filler and stuff all over the rear quarter panel even though he was never in an accident. He took it to a body shop to see what that was all about and they said the car looked like it had quite a bit of rear end damage which was repaired (hence the body filler and fading paint on the entire rear and roof of the car). The car was old and he was about to get rid of it anyway so he just let it go and did not bring it up to the dealer he bought the car from. He never gave any business to that dealer ever again.
