Sounds like the door lock actuator, run a search and a few threads will pop up. I believe some said the part cost is about 200 bucks.

door actuator. i paid like 170 for mine. if you know what you're doing, you can save a few bucks and do it yourself. just to let you know you need to remove the door handle and the sub window rail in order to pop the old actuator out.

ToNee, go to your Lexus dealer and check to see if your car's been serviced for that recall. Mine unfortunately was, so I had to drop $170 like quicksilver and get a new one for my driver's side.

Good luck!
