Default Who has replaced the battery on their 3rd Gen
So I have the 2014 with 26k miles on it and had the Battery Drain Recall done a few weeks ago. I came home yesterday at approximately 230 pm and parked my car. When I went to start my car this morning it was dead.

I am wondering if after 3 years the factory battery could need to be replaced... anyone else replace theirs yet?

Same problem here. After 3 years my Oem battery needed to be replaced. I had the same interval with my previous lexus every 3 years. This time though I replaced the Oem battery with a Costco Duracell battery. Hopefully it last longer than 3 years.

6 months ago I had to jump my car due to battery issue. Afterwards I had no issues up to date. If it happens again, Ill know its time to replace my battery or check alternator.

My Costco doesn't offer a battery for the current gen IS. Which one did you buy?

Common issue for 2014 battery drain. There's an existing thread with lots of info.

I had my Gateway ECU replaced a few weeks ago. And Lexus replaced the battery at the same time.
