SITTING AT AN INTERSECTION OR MOVING SLOWLY FORWARD IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY MOVE FORWARD (OR REVERSE IF BACKING) CAUSING THE POTENTIAL FOR A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER WHO ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM AND DEMONSTRATED THE SAME CONDITION ON OTHER VEHICLES. THEY REQUESTED HELP FROM LEXUS AND…

I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO TO LEXUS OF PEMBROKE PINES, WHERE THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR 2 DAYS AND REPLACED SOME PARTS. UPON FILLING UP THE NEXT TIME, IT STILL ONLY FILLED UP 3/4 OF THE WAY. THEY HAVE NOW LITERALLY REPLACED EVERY PART HAVING TO DO WIT…
