1999 Lexus RX300 review from North America
"A non dependable flawed sport utility"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission went out at 72,000 miles, the Lexus Dealer did give me a rebuilt transmission free of charge. I am very UNhappy to report that at 114,000 miles the transmission has gone out once again. Lexus of course is not paying for it this time, I am.
JD.Power ranks these cars number one in dependability? I drive my Lexus with great care in normal city conditions.
I have had many different cars of different makes and have never had a problem with a transmission until I got my Lexus RX 300! We should all unite and start a class action law suit to get our Thousands of Dollars Back!
General comments?
It is a nice car aside from the Transmission that goes out every 40,000 miles.
