2016 Ls 460 L air shocks

Paid a deposit on a 2016 LS 460 L, with very low mileage, 20000 miles driven. From the service record, 4 air shocks were replaced two years ago. Is that a concern? Thanks!

If it was replaced with OEM struts, they saved you a lot of money.

With such low mileage I would be concerned, is the under carriage of the car really rusty or was the previous owner some type of commercial enterprise are the first things that would come to mind for me.

They were replaced by Lexus dealership and Lexus website showed all the service records, all services were done with the same/single LA dealer.

Then you’re good to go, good luck. Thanks for the details now.

Just make sure that it was serviced properly. Oil still needs be changed every year even so the car was not driven. Brake fluid should replaced periodically etc.
