What about the vibration?

pemarsh

giving that a bit more time...i dont seem to notice it as much as before.....but im not sure if thats due to me getting used to it or the actual vibration getting less.

I think we have had several, including me, see it happen less and less with time. I know mine did it for just a second or two the other day from a stop to going up a pretty steep hill. It has been over a month or two from the last time it did it. When it was new it would do it several times a week!

Mine seems to be getting a little better milage after it hit the 10k on the odo!

Talked to my service rep today...

advisor admits the ac seats are not functioning as should be...calling Lexus for a rep to come out....states other Lexus sedans have much more powerful ac seats.

advisor agrees that the left side of seat bolster on driver seat is very uncomfortable...they sat in three others and had same uncomfortable experience. They are going to have Lexus look at it also.

Was told that 3rd row seat rattle is seat belt that needed replacing (on both sides)...i really do not believe this is the correct diagnosis or fix...but we shall see.

Please post the outcome of the seat a/c. I'd love to get more cold air on my hot @$$...haha
we've had a 100 degree+ heatwave

for those of you with the same issues with your ac....if you are unhappy with it, it would be best if you could call Lexus to let them know. More the better.

From what I read in this forum, nobody seems to be happy with these AC seats including myself.


Please, keep us posted about the rear seat rattle.

pemarsh

the best thing you can do about the ac is notify your dealer...the more that complain, the more lexus will realize something is not right.

pemarsh,

Any updates on these issues? Did you get them fixed?

pemarsh

Got a call from Lexus last week (i was out of town). I was told by the "Lexus specialist" that everything is normal. However for my trouble, i get a free service!! Whatever. I am waiting for a call from his "supervisor".

I have read some posts since i was out of town, and i see that the 2009 ac seats have been fixed??? Can anyone confirm??

I thought all dealers gave the 5K free. I know Lexus of Jacksonville always has.
