I saw some sobering statistic that over 25% of TX are stolen in Ontario. That's 1 in 4! You have some serious TX specialist thieves up there in the great north.

Having owned my TX for 6 weeks and planning on driving to Vancouver and Whistler Canada in 2 months, this post has freaked me out a bit. I live in Los Angeles and we had a rash of thefts from unlocked vehicles. One arrest and it all ended. Just takes one **** to make a big stink. The TX thefts all occurred in Ontario. My first visit to Ontario many years ago made me feel that Toronto was the was NYC should be. Let’s not get too crazy about this unfortunate situation. Canada is a great place to live and vacation. Far less gun violence.

I say go take the trip it shouldn’t be an issue I was just in Vancouver w/ our TX and no issues. In fact I got a few compliments on it as we have the 550h+ which isn’t available in there.

Go to Niagara Falls they said. It is beatifull there they said. 4 TXs were hit in just one night. When i dropped a rental at Niagara falls and was walking back to the US i saw Grand Nighlander towed back to US with EXACTLY the same damage.

I know it's a pain but driving to Canada in a rental sounds like a good idea if you own a Lexus product.

Hundreds of Thousands of vehicles visit. It’s still a very small issue. I’ve driven all over Canada on the East and West side. Never had an issue in a luxury vehicle or Lexus. Unfortunately things happen. The place I had the most issues was in Miami.

Due to recent events we have done, are Americans more targeted in Canada? Maybe.
