Description of the problem | My 2014 lexus is 250 driver's side door will not unlock or let me in at random. When approaching the vehicle and pressing the "unlock" button on my key fob, all doors will unlock except the driver's side door. When this occurs, you must walk to the other side of the vehicle, manually unlock the door, and then it will work again until the next time you need access to the vehicle. This is a huge safety concern, as there is no guarantee that i will be able to enter the safety of my vehicle when needed. After leaving my 2014 is 250 at the lexus dealership to be worked on for this issue, i was given another 2014 is 250 as a complimentary loaner. Less than three hours after obtaining the loaner vehicle, it also expressed the exact same issue. This can only lead me to believe that this is a nationwide software/electrical lexus issue that needs to be recalled by lexus immediately. |
