take it to Lexus and they will fix it for free. There is a class action lawsuit for this very issue and they are fixing these issues at their cost. I missed the boat and replaced several components that failed sporadically.

I do not think it is a recall. It is a goodwill repair stemming from the lawsuit.

How many miles are on your GS? And when did you purchase it?

I think you need a code right there, but take it there and let them drive it and see what transpires
