Check steering column system
2015 RX 350 showing message above after pushing starter button but car not firing. Local garage can not duplicate. Have checked fuel pressure and battery all good. Steering column extends and lowers but quickly returns to parked position when engine doesn't fire. Starter turning engine but not firing. Any ideas?
Welcome to CL. How many miles are on it?
How often does this occur?
Your problem may be a difficult one to diagnose online. I don't recall any similar complaints.
Did they pull any stored codes? It may be time for a second opinion from another local independent shop.
Here is an older thread regarding a somewhat similar issue: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...ering-msg.html

160k miles. Happened 3 times in past month. No codes. Yes, this was a very popular independent garage that usually can handle our many different vehicles. I hate having to go to the dealer across town. I will check the older thread. Thanks.
