LEXUS LX570 2009 Safety Review #10371804

LEXUS LX570 2009 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2010.LEXUS LX570 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SEAT BELTS . MY 9 YEAR OLD SON NEARLY STRANGLED IN FRONT OF HIS SISTER AND TWIN SIBLINGS (5 YEARS OLD) WHEN THE MIDDLE SEAT BELT OF THE THIRD ROW GOT TANGLED AROUND HIS NECK. THIS SEATBELT HANGS FROM THE CEILING. I COULD NOT DISLODGE THE BELT FROM AROUND HIS NECK, AS IT WAS NOT OBVIOUS HOW TO DISENGAGE THE CEILING LATCH. WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE TO STOP A PASSING CAR, RETRIEVE A PAIR OF SCISSORS AND CUT THE BELT TO FREE MY SON. HE WAS ON THE VERGE OF PASSING OUT FROM LACK OF OXYGEN. THE PARAMEDICS TOOK HIM THE TO THE ER, WHERE THEY DETECTED A RASH AROUND HIS FACE AND NECK THAT IS COMMON WITH STRANGULATION. HE WAS BADLY TRAUMATIZED, ALONG WITH THE REST OF US. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO LEXUS AND FOLLOWED UP NUMEROUS TIMES. EACH TIME THEY ADVISED ME THAT THEY WERE INVESTIGATING THE INCIDENT AND WOULD GET BACK TO ME. THEY NEVER DID DESPITE MORE THAN 6 EFFORTS TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE. *TR.Mileage was 15000 miles. Lexus Lx570 2009 problem was reported in NY, NY. Accident was reported to Police. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 40 mph.

LEXUS LX570 2009 Safety Review #10373483

LEXUS LX570 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 29, 2010.LEXUS LX570 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SEATS . I AM AN EXPERIENCED CPST (>800 SEATS PER YEAR) WHO YESTERDAY ASSISTED A MOTHER WITH INSTALLATION OF HER NEW GRACO SR-35 INFANT CAR SEAT W/ BASE MODEL # 1759703 IN HER 2009 LEXUS LX570 SUV. THIS COMPLAINT IS SPECIFIC TO A VEHICLE INTERIOR FEATURE THAT MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CORRECTLY INSTALL THE CHILD RESTRAINT. THE VEHICLE BENCH SEAT IN THE SECOND ROW HAD LEATHER INTERIOR. THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE SEAT CUSHION INCLUDES A SUBSTANTIAL ROUNDED CUSHION THAT PROTRUDES FORWARD AT THE VEHICLE SEAT BIGHT. THIS SUBSTANTIAL THICKNESS OF MFG DESIGNED PADDING INTERFERES SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THE INSTALLATION OF AN INFANT SEAT BASE BECAUSE IT DISPLACES THE BASE OF THE INFANT SEAT SEVERAL INCHES FORWARD OF THE SEAT BIGHT. THE DISPLACEMENT OF THE BASE SEVERAL INCHES FORWARD OF THE SEAT BIGHT PROHIBITED SECURE INSTALLATION OF THE BASE WITH BOTH THE LATCH SYSTEM AND THE SEATBELT. TOYOTA SUVS OF SIMILAR BODY TYPE ALSO HAVE A SIMILAR SEAT CUSHION FEATURE HOWEVER IT IS NOT AS PRONOUNCED. ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL THE BASE ON TOP OF THIS CUSHION THAT PROTRUDES FROM THE SEAT BIGHT WAS A PROBLEM AS THE BASE EASILY SLIPS OFF THE PROTRUDING CUSHION ....CAUSING EXCESSIVE SLACK AND SIDE TO SIDE MOVEMENT OF THE BASE. THIS SLIPPING AND THE EXCESSIVE SLACK IT CREATES COULD PROVE PARTICULARLY PROBLEMATIC IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT THE OUTBOARD SEATING LOCATIONS OF THE 2009 LEXUS LX570 HAVE SEAT MOUNTED TORSO AIRBAGS. OWNER OF THE VEHICLE HAS REQUESTED THAT I SUBMIT THIS COMPLAINT. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTJHY00W994. Lexus Lx570 2009 problem was reported in BATON ROUGE, LA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. Vehicle had 8 CYLINDERS. Lexus Lx570 2009 drive type:AWD.
