Pre Collision System - just bought it!!
Just bought a 2016 Lexus GS 350 F Sport all wheel drive, loaded for $37K, 30K miles, cpo’d. Pre collision system stopped working. Error message says it’s not available. The reason I went Lexus instead of Audi A6 is I was hoping for no error messages. Will warranty cover this? Replaced a BMW 335 ix. Thank you in advance for insight.

Is there snow on the front of your car? If so, that can block the sensor/radar and make it unavailable until it's cleaned off.

No snow
[QUOTE=JDR76;10437934]Is there snow on the front of your car? If so, that can block the sensor/radar and make it unavailable until it's cleaned off. Error message began when there was snow. It’s been in a warm garage since I brought it home. Maybe it has to be cleaned? Where is the sensor?

Yes, warranty will cover it. If nothing is blocking the sensors, take it to the dealership.

The "L" Lexus logo on the front grill, in combination with the camera in your windshield. Some of my sensors/systems were going a little nuts on my drive in this morning due to the snow. Hopefully that's all it is, but if not, definitely let your warranty do its thing.

You paid $37k for a 2016 GS with 30k miles is pretty high and you didn't list what options you had but for the mileage and year model seems pretty high compared to what I have seen here locally in Chicagoland area. As an example I seen same 2016 models with HUD, Triple beams etc.with much less mileage go for $33-$36k range.

Also, CPO. I just picked up a 16 F-sport with similar setup (RWD though) and paid the same. CPO. I know I could get the same car for $4k cheaper, but the CPO means I don't have to sweat anything until almost 2023. Having spent my life rebuilding GM cars and Hondas, the moment this car hiccups, she's going to Sewell in Dallas immediately.
You got a great CPO car at the right price. I found that one of the sweetest spots is 35/35 CPO. 35k miles, $35k, full CPO warranty. That's exactly what I bought.
