2003 lexus sc430. consumer writes in regards to vehicle sudden acceleration. *smd the consumer stated as she proceeded to pull out of a parking space, she then place the vehicle in drive, it then accelerated at a high speed. Finally after hitting a pole, it jumped the curb and ended on a busy street. The dealership sent someone out to expect the vehicle. The consumer was provided a disc that showed the vehicle accelerated at a high speed, but they would not say the true cause of the problem, which may have had something to do with the wheel locking and the brakes not functioning.

This IS an issue involving the apparent failure of three out of four goodyear asymmetric tires. First issue was a bubble found on the outside sidewall of the right front tire. Approximately 1 week later the left front tire let loose a thin very long ribbon of rubber from the inside edge of the tread. A few months later the left rear inner sidewall blew out in two places like a bursting bubble. These tires have the same date code and were put on the car at the same time approximately a year and a half prior to the first failure. The tire with the delaminated rubber ribbon was replaced at the time at my cost before I realized there was a pattern here. I have contacted goodyear on numerous occasions and they refused to reimburse me or replace that one or the other defective tires. All old tires are available and in my possession. This complaint IS for all three tires...same dot number same date code... *tr

I am formally filing a complaint against a veh 2003 lexus sc430. I have reason to believe that this veh has caused an accident dated april 3, 2010 at about 2AM. After the collision, I noticed that the left tire was out at the left bottom area of the car. I was turning on a parking lot (180 degs) traveling about 25-30 mph, the wheel locked and the brakes were not functioning. It accelerated into parked vehicles in front and the airbags deployed. After the accident, I took pics of the vehicle at an impound and I noticed that the left wheel steering arm and lower suspension was cut off from its stem. The knuckle steering was pulled off from the tie rod. The lf wheel was still attached to the wheel shroud and brakes and the lug nuts were intact but it was out under the vehicle. Impact was at the right ft and right fender but the left wheel was cut off at the stem of the suspension arm and steering arm. I looked at the scene of the accident, I noticed excavated markings before the impact proving that metal was scraping on the asphalt road before the impact. There were signs of brake fluid leakage about 15-20 feet before impact. I have pic and video to prove such claim (such as no signs of dent inside the inner housing of the lft wheel, brackets were intact, suspension were intact, brake shroud were intact, lower suspension and steering arm was cut off at the stem). I called your office on april 9 no verbally report this complaint, but your office referred me to lexus. Lexus has been informed at 1-800-255-3987 (option 4 complaint # peter reonisto) and they have agreed to bring the car from the impound into their van nuys dealer office. They have promised to do so on april 14, 2010 but have not yet acted on this complained. I referred this incident with safety research and strategies together with pic and they have advised that nhtsa should be primary in the investigation. I feel that there IS valid investigation done [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(B)(6). *Tr

The car failed to start six times in the first five months. It seems they have found the cause of that problem. however, the car continues to make clunking noise whenever it goes over a bump. Lexus tells me that IS normal. I say it sounds like a 1973 dodge I owned 30 years ago. The car also pulls to the right at low speeds. Again I'm told this IS normal and IS a result of the run flat tires. If so, they should use other tires. parking brake light continues to come on intermittently. I have requested that this car be replaced repeatedly. Lexus has refused.

- 11003648The condition known as acid rain is caused by airborne chemicals or particles in the atmosphere, which mix with rainwater, nighttime dew, or high humidity to form acidic compounds. If these contaminants settle and remain on a painted vehicle surface, especially the horizonal areas of the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage can occur. This damage is the result of actual etching of the paint and appears as pitting or water spots. As acid rain droplets on the vehicle surface evaporate, the concentration strength of the acid increases, causing deeper and more rapid damage. This evaporation and corrosive action also occur more rapidly on dark colored cars as direct sun heat increases. While Lexus paint quality, durability, and resistance to environmental factors is continuously being improved, it remains the responsibility of the dealer to protect and maintain the vehicles paint finish from the time of arrival at the dealership until retail delivery to the customer. In areas known for high frequency and/or concentration of acid rain, frequent vehicle washing during high heat or humidity periods will minimize the potential for paint damage caused by acid rain. It is further recommended that either reverse osmosis or deionized water be used to prevent water spotting.

- 10177780TSB: SUPERSESSION NOTICE The information contained in this bulletin supersedes Service Bulletin Nos. ST004-01, SU001-08, and L-SB-0174-08. The aforementioned bulletins are obsolete, and any printed versions should be discarded. Be sure to review the entire content of this service bulletin before proceeding. This Service Bulletin provides best practice procedures for vehicle pulling complaint, diagnosis, and repair for 2002 ? 2021 model year Lexus vehicles. This information supplements Repair Manual procedures when the symptoms are: ?Vehicle Pulling: The vehicle moves to the right or left when the driver holds the steering wheel while driving straight ahead without exerting steering effort. ?Steering Wheel Off Center: The vehicle travels straight, but the steering wheel is not pointed straight ahead. The vehicle is not pulling. Before repairing a vehicle pulling to one side, it is necessary to clearly identify the cause of the pulling condition. Frequently, pulling to one side is diagnosed as a wheel alignment concern. However, the actual cause may be related to the lateral force generated by the tires, vehicle damage, road crown or worn components. Performing a wheel alignment when tire force is the cause could result in the wheel alignment being set at a value outside of specifications. This could then cause other problems such as uneven tire wear, etc. A customer may notice a pull to the left when in the left lanes of travel and notice a pull to the right or no pull when traveling in the right lanes of travel on the very same section of roadway. This road crown effect is environmental and cannot be corrected with suspension adjustments or any other wheel or tire modification discussed in this bulletin.
