Common problem for that part to be defective.

Yes it's "common" but the firmware update usually fixes it without the need to replace the unit. Unless the firmware update fails and bricks the unit (very uncommon). I like many hate the idea of removing interior components unnecessarily as you end up with fit differences and the chance that a rattle develops because something was disturbed.

Well of course, if there is a easier fix like a firmware update I would try that first. I would take it to the dealer so they could diagnose it first though. My unit was fixed at first with just a updated firmware through the dealer, after 2 months it started happening again. I brought it back to the dealer and they said I had a defective unit and replaced it. Never had an issue for about a year now. I would suggest taking it to the dealer for a diagnosis if the vehicle is still under warranty. But I agree wouldn't take anything out in the interior if it's not needed personally hate rattle.
They performed a firmware update on my unit first and after it didn't fix the problem they determined that my unit was corrupted. It was replaced under warranty.

^^Same here. I agree that the firmware update usually fixes the issue, but, there are some that require unit replacement (myself included). Take it to the dealer before your warranty expires.

As it's a common issue try contacting Lexus directly to see if they will help you.

Lexus should perform a recall to fulfill their "Pursuit of Perfection" since this is a well-known issue, i don't mind about cracking or suspension noise i usually fix them myself and i don't know much about Electrical also this issue is Programmer Engineer related, Ay Yah Toyota gave me ZERO issue in 20+ years, Lexus gave me many issue in 2.5 years, time to look at "Toyota Camry 2018 XSE or Avalon" thanks for your info bro.
