Default 2015 Rx350 AWD Tranny to be replaced at 7200miles

2015 Rx350 AWD 7200 miles Transmission started leaking. Lexus will replace it with a new one. Did anyone encounter any similar transmission problem? I am disappointed with the quality. My 2004 was much better.
Thanks

Paul, sorry you're 1st post was about a leaking transmission. I'm glad Lexus seems to be taking care of it for you. How is the car otherwise? I noticed in your profile you had an RX prior to your 2015. How was it? If your transmission was your only issue then I'd hope that wouldn't be a damper on your opinion re: quality. One of the great things is they'll jump in and replace a major something or another when it's proved defective. Shoot a photo or two once it's working again and let us know how the repair went

It can happen to any car. This happened to a Honda Civic I bought new back in 1991. The manual transmission made a loud grinding noise and I persuaded them to replace the transmission after 3 weeks. No problems in the remaining time I owned the car.
