Default SO Many Issues

Kind of noticed around 75% of these threads are for problems with their RX.
I really haven't had any issues with our '09. Am I the exception or are there owners like me that haven't had issues?? Kind of makes one wonder if a new vehicle (RX ) a wise thing to do??

I think that a lot of owners come to forums like this in search of information for various issues. The vast majority of satisfied customers, not so much. As one poster said a while back, you don't see posts that read something like "I drove the car today, and nothing unusual happened".

It's not a problem but the AC isn't as cold as our 03 Solara. And I've been on Nissan vehicles who's AC are known for really cold air, but that was 15 years ago.

My 2011 RX350 AC works great, always set the LS at 74 degrees and find that I set the RX at 76 or even 78 for the same comfort level.

The only problem is I don't have a place to put my sunglasses. I really miss that glasses holder.

Does the Rx350 have electric AC as well? The electric AC on the RX450h is very cold.

100+ degrees in DC, black interior, my AC is handling it.
