Default Did you get your warning triangle?

I was flipping through the owner manual, and noticed on page 231 that there is supposed to be a warning triangle strapped on the back interior wall of the trunk. My car has the straps, but no triangle.

Anyone else? Should I be *****ing at the dealer, or should I call the Lexus 800 number?

I have an email into my service manager to find out where mine went as well.

From the manual it looks like it stows where the cargo net is. Perhaps
they remove the triangle when installing the cargo net?

I think it's a European standard safety law thing. Anytime I've seen a warning triangle in the back, it's in the trunk of a German car.

Exclamation Your triangle is not missing...

as there aren't any that come with Lexus models. (Audi does) The strap is provided on some of the models to put one if you want to purchase it and stow it. I am glad someone is reading their manuals though.....

I believe only the Prado gets the hazard sign. It’s required by law in Europe, along with a first aid kit.
