We have a 2026 TX500h we've owned for a week. Aside from rattles, the transmission has been very smooth. hopefully these kinks have been worked out.
I've heard about "the Lexus Rattles" on a number of threads, usually 2024 models - but oddly enough none of my three Lexus vehicles has ever had this issue (2010 RX350, 2023 RX 350, 2026 TX 500h FSL), EXCEPT when its someting I've put in the car - like metal glasses in the holder over the console or things in the door pockets or in the rear under floor storage bin. And those are easily "sorted". I'm at 3K miles an a number of trips on the TX and its as quiet as the family couch at movie time on Friday. The car is just solid.
How bad are the rattles with yours and where are they coming from?

Rear passenger door panel and somewhere in the dash. Comes and goes with temp.
Assuming this is a 2026 TX?? I had similar issues with my previous vehicle, 2024 Grand Highlander Hybrid Max and hoping that my upgrade to the Lexus would be a better experience. So far so good at 5,000 miles.
I have my 2026 Lexus TX500h and have around 1,500 miles on it. Drives great when accelerating without any problems so far. When stopping, a would shake say 1 of out of 30 times maybe. I'll bring it up during the next oil change.
Already fixed a few complains already including the shifter, alignment. Also, the notable issue with the driver seat during power down where it would go backwards and forward to be taken care of.
