Complaint Review: LEXUS

Bought a brand new 2016 Lexus RX350.  Here are the two major issues that would have prevented me from making the mistake of buying the vehicle.

1. Poor heat output of heated steering wheel and heated seats.  MAJOR OVERSIGHT by Toyota/Lexus designers.

2. Vehicle will not start due to discharged battery if not started in several weeks.  This is due to the installation of a Compustar remote starter by the dealer.  Since it is a two-way key fob it commnicates with the vehicle causing exessive battery drain.  This requires that the vehicle be put on a triclkle charge 365 days a year... jsust in case I don't drive it for a few weeks.

There is another annoying issue - the "browse" feature does not work with a music USB device.  Since you cannot select the artist, song, genre or "shuffle" it means you have to listen to the same song list every time you drive the vehicle... starting from song #1...!  Yet another oversight by Lexus engineers.

This is an expensive luxury vehicle that should not have these kinds of issues.

My main focus in buying this vehicle was reliability...instead I feel like I bought a lemon that won't even start if left unattended for a few weeks.  No wonder it sits for weeks without being driven... I don't even want to drive it in winter ...because I freeze my ands and butt off!!!!

THINK TWICE ABOUT BUYING A LEXUS... if starting and comfort are important to you.
