Default Need some feedback on potential LS 500 purchase

Hello everyone,

I've owned a number of Lexus' in the past. From an ES, an LS and my wife and I now own an RX. On my previous LS, the brake actuator was starting to show some problems. I'm looking at possibly purchasing a 2019 LS 500 AWD with about 57k miles on it. It is a 1 owner vehicle and does have a history of regular oil changes and service intervals. However, can all of you shed some light on a few questions I have?

Questions:
1. Does this generation of LS have any of the previous brake actuator problems?
2. Any problems with the air suspension?
3. Any additional problems with the electronics, motor or anything else?

As a note, I'm not someone that trades out cars every year or two. I usually hold on to my vehicles for a long time. Therefore, long term reliability is important, as it should be.

Thanks for all of your help and insight.

Safe driving!

Jason
