Description of the problem	Vehicle due for regular, periodic service at lexus of manhattan. Arrived @ 07:00. At 09:35 service manager informed us of serious problems with the rotors, brakes, and alignment. Said they had completed the alignment and cautioned the vehicle would have to subsequently have major braking system repairs. Vehicle was leased new in may 2011. Had never exhibited a single problem. Was driven ~98% highways. Always garaged. Never parked on a city street. This lexus either is a "lemon" or the dealer is fabricating the truth. Problems reported to lexus. Response: "the problems with the vehicle are not covered and must have resulted from your misusing the vehicle." in effect, lexus is taking their dealer's side in this situation leaving the door open to this complaint to the federal authorities. This situation is pure nonsense and either the vehicle is a "lemon" or the dealer was "up-selling" an unnecessary repair. Lexus has refused to authorize this vehicle be inspected by their own technicians. Thus lexus customer satisfaction (the people with whom i was speaking at lexus) is putting itself into the position of admitting there is something wrong with their vehicle but they will not even investigate their dealer's findings! Something is (again) very wrong with the people from toyota!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
