Hey everyone, I just purchased a 2012 GX Ultra Prem and love it!! So in the contract from the Toyota dealer (where we purchased the truck from) offered a 36 day "warranty" which says they will cover any problem that we experience from time of purchase to the 36 day mark.

The vehicle came to us clean, one owner, and the Lexus warranty for the 4 yr OR 80,000 KM just ended. The warranty just reached the 4 yr mark and has only 78,000 KM. Firstly we we called Lexus Canada to try to get info on extended warranty or as they call it "ECP". They said the local dealer usually does provide the warranty in a short time frame after expiration like this.

Do you guys think we should extend the "bumper to bumper" warranty from Lexus? If the extension is worth it?

Secondly we are experiencing a sort of rumble when the brakes are applied. We felt this rumble on the test drive, and told the sales person we wanted this fixed before we drove off the lot. When we did leave it still had the rumble. Now we might think it is a mechanism within the car to alert the driver the brakes are being applied. So turning to you guys for some help!

Thanks in Advance

Congrats and welcome to CL. The brake problem you have is NOT normal. Your question with the extended warranty is controversial here, it is a Lexus and that is why many of us are here, for reliability. Some want the peace of mind with a warranty.

Personally, I will take my chances with the known reliability of Lexus. Get rid of the secondary intake filter and you are good to go

Bring car in immediately to get brakes fixed.

"Rumble" could be warped rotors, faulty ABS, etc.
