Default Wind Fix, The Vin Numbers

Do we know or when will we know the vin numbers that are affected and are to be dealt with by Lexus?

I don't see how any wind noise fix would involve anything less than all 2007, 2008 and 2009 LS models. A recall is unlikely because it is not a safety issue. Maybe some sort of selective notification for those who have complained will be implemented by the dealers. I hope that I am wrong.

Did a search and couldn't find anything other than the original wind noise fix thread. Was there a recent announcement?

** Nevermind, just looked at the original thread.

The new wind noise "fix" will be available in February. I believe that it will be a matter of if you have a wind noise issue your dealer will order the parts and they will fix it. You need to initiate the action.

As I stated, Lexus now has a wind noise "fix" and they will start fixing the problem for those that request it in February. I imagine that this wind noise fix they are talking about involves the triangular piece on the corner of the front windows. However, there has been no real details of exactly what the "fix" is. Stay tuned.

Yep - saw your "stated" - just looking for details that would make your statement worth more than 2cents. I'm all for the dealerships taking this on in an organized, standardized format - but no breath holding here.
