This is precisely why I have been annoyed at all the whining for the TSB from the 250 owners. How many would be complaining as hard about the alleged brake dust "tragedy" if it didn't happen for the 350 owners?
As far as I see it, a significant proportion of the whining for a TSB for the 250 occurred for 2 reasons. 1) People just wanted free brake pads. 2) If the 350 people can have them, we want ours too.
I bet a bunch of people are privately glad they have brake dust on their wheels. woo hoo! free brake pads! You know who you are.
ok, rant done.
Please don't make general statements for which you have no evidence to support them.
It's in response to the number of people complaning about their brake dust...kinda like a recall i guess ...it started with the Is350's and they got their pads replaced with GS pads...but they didn't have it for the 250's untli now
Yes. Finally it's here. Getting tired of cleaning my wheels every other day.
Ony have 6K mi but I don't mind the switch. If this new brake pads are subpar I'll just switch back to the original pads.
I hope so because I am sick of cleaning off brake dust for my car and I just had this car for 2 weeks.

Going to the dealer and looking for the car you want = Hassle.
Placing a special order on the car = 5 months of waiting.
Months with out the dealer reponds = Nerve wrecking.
When your car finally arrives = Price Less.
TSB's are sometimes taken care of by the dealer if the car is on their lot and they receive the bulletin.
Other times they just don't bother.
When a company finds problems in their cars, they usually address the problem and fix it on the assembly line so they post a vin number on the TSB stating: cars starting from VIN number #ABC1234 - #ABD1239 are accepted for this service or recall.
They also give you the manufacture date.
I'm hoping we get the replacement pads cuz after 600 miles with soft braking, my rims are black.
If Lexus is aiming for the Luxury in Luxury Sport sedan, they missed this.
I don't see how silver rims that turn black real fast are part of the pursuit of perfection . . .
