1999 Lexus RX300 review from North America
"Do not buy lexus for brand name"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When giving gas the car makes funny noise and jums at times and the rpm goes high, but the speed doesnot increase. recently check engine light came on and replaced two oxygen sensors at a cost of 800 dollars.
General comments?
The car was giving a lot of troubles since I bought in 2001.had oil sludge problems and dealer fixed it under recall.
