Description of the problem | My 2014 lexus is 250 currently does not have working locks. I had previously owned a 2010 lexus is 250 with issues with the locks. The actuator was changed and the car works for a minimal amount of time and then the actuator stops working again. It is very expensive to fix and the dealership wants $555 dollars to replace it per door. Currently no locks on my 2014 lexus work. The dealership wants over $2,200 dollars to replace the actuators. This is a safety issue. If my son were to unlock his door in the back and someone were to try to open his door i could not lock it to protect him. If i'm on the wrong side of town and someone tries to get in on the opposite side of my car where i cannot reach the lock, i'm in danger. This is a danger issue and a known issue for lexus, a recall needs to be done. We paid a lot of money for our cars and expect to at least be safe with locks. |
