Quote: Toyota/Lexus suspensions do suck.

96 Camry shocks done at 80k
92 es300 whole suspension shot at 100k
00 es300 suspension shot at 95k, struts, sway bar end links, lower ball joints , outer tie rod ends
07 gs450h shot at 100k struts, lower balll joints sway bar end links
12 rx450h suspension shot at 80k, struts, end links.
So wear items in the suspension had worn out around 100k? All cars require maintenance and luxury cars more so. Its a reality of life. Nothing lasts forever

is there a reason it happens more at low speeds? At higher speeds there is less stress?
