Your getting the "stupid" responses because you posted a stupid thread..if you would have just stated your issues and asked for help or advice you probably would have gotten alot more useful responses and less bulls#$%. I can understand why your angry but theres plenty of us who have the same car with absolutely none of those issues you stated (except the crickets). You just have to press harder and get the dealership that isnt servicing a brand new car under warranty correctly in to trouble because basically they are violating a contract if everything your saying is true :happy0180:

I wonder why?
There are way too many issues on this car and I have yet to see them fied on the 2014 model.
Seems to be more of an owner problem than a car problem.

I have a car that has been through 2 hailstorms this summer alone, and been dealing with delays in getting my car repaired both times, in the meantime I was driving around what looked like a red golf ball (its finally in the shop getting fixed.

Did I make a whole thread bitching about how I was going to give up my car because of it? No.

If you are making a thread just to vent, then say so. Otherwise, pull the trigger one way or the other, sell the car or keep it.

Husker I agree and understand. I tried to sell mine, trade it in, and in the end did not want to take such a huge loss. For now I drive it and when anyone asks if I like it I tell them I hate it. I will be glad when its gone and I get back into a better car.

lol. You are here on internet and expecting quality responses.

Alright. Jk...

You could just trade your car for a corolla or yaris or any lower scale family sedan.
Forget about Lexus, you are a college student and can't afford that level.
Plus you might get some cashback

Bahaha, so I have to state in the title that I'm just venting? Could you not tell that it was just me venting?

if you really don't like the car, stock out, sell the parts and trade it in for something you'd rather have. lots of great cars out there, no point to be miserable, or you could buy a new corrolla and realize that the build quality is a little worse then what you currently have and your disappointment with toyota can continue.
No, the axle clicks every time I accelerate and shift. I can FEEL it unstable when I turn.

Who's buying this for the hype in this thread? No one ever said that. Nice try.

Again, I've had Lexus cars before. I would go to a used IS250.
