LEXUS CT 2012 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2013.LEXUS CT 2012, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SUSPENSION . I PURCHASED MY TWO NEW 2012 LEXUS CT200HS IN DECEMBER 2012 WITH 23 MILES ON IT. ONE OF THEM HAS BEEN TOTALLY FINE. THE OTHER ONE, FROM THE FIRST DAY, HAD A VERY JITTERY RIDE. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THE RIDE WAS ABNORMAL AND THEY REPLACED ALL 4 MICHELIN TIRES. THE TIRE REPLACEMENT DID NOT CHANGE THE CARS RIDE OR BEHAVIOR. I'VE RETURNED TO 2 LEXUS DEALERSHIPS MULTIPLE TIMES AS WELL AS HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH LEXUS HQ, AND THEY'RE ALL NOW SAYING THAT THE CAR IS PERFORMING AS DESIGNED. I CAN DEAL WITH A ROUGH RIDING CAR, BUT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THIS LEXUS HAS A HIGH FREQUENCY VIBRATION THAT TRAVELS THROUGH THE CAR: CAN FEEL IN THE FLOOR, STEERING WHEEL, DOORS, SEATS. I COMMUTE 17 MILES TO WORK AND BY THE TIME I EXIT THE HIGHWAY, MY FEET AND LOWER LEGS ARE NEARLY NUMB FROM THE VIBRATION. THE CAR IS PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTING TO DRIVE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT LEXUS WOULD CALL THIS DRIVING EXPERIENCE AS "PERFORMING AS DESIGNED". *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 300 miles. Lexus Ct 2012 problem was reported in HAYMARKET, WA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 55 mph.

LEXUS CT Structure Body

LEXUS CT 2012 Safety Review #10508119

LEXUS CT 2012 car safety problem was reported on Apr 09, 2013.LEXUS CT 2012, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . THE PASSENGER SIDE GLASS ON MY 2012 CT EXPLODED FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON A FEW DAYS AGO. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 65 MPH AND I SUDDENLY HEARD A LOUD 'BOOM' AND THE SIDE WINDOW WAS GONE... COMPLETELY GONE. NOTHING HIT MY CAR, NO ROCKS, NO BULLETS... NO BRICKS. THERE WAS NO ONE BESIDE ME AND I WAS ON I-81. HAD I OVER-REACTED, I COULD HAVE CRASHED THE CAR. HAD THERE BEEN A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT, SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY CUT FROM THE FLYING GLASS SHARDS AT 65 MPH. I EXPERIENCED CUTS ON MY RIGHT HAND AND ARM. LEXUS, IN A COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTING SHOW OF CUSTOMER "SERVICE" IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR IT UNDER WARRANTY. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A CT THAT HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN. DO A GOOGLE SEARCH AND YOU'LL FIND A FEW OTHER CASES ON OTHER FORUMS. I POINT YOU TO THIS WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE (HTTP://EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG/WIKI/SPONTANEOUS_GLASS_BREAKAGE) WHICH CLEARLY STATES THIS PHENOMENON IS DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECTS IN THE GLASS. I SUGGESTED THAT LEXUS CORPORATE SEND THE GLASS BACK TO THE VENDOR FOR ANALYSIS AND THEY REFUSED! THEY SIMPLY COULD CARE LESS. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER TOYOTA PRODUCT AGAIN AND I WARN ALL READERS TO BE VERY CAREFUL. *TR.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 20000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTHKD5BHXC2. Lexus Ct 2012 problem was reported in SYRACUSE, NY. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
