Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I have a 2019 LS500 I’ve been hearing noise from my tires and Also my tire shredded literally at 3k miles. It took manufacture 6 months after that to recall all 4 tires. I was very scared to drive the car. When it happened I was going 80. The car swerved all over the highway. If there had been a car near me it most likely would have been fatal. The absolute most terrifying experience I have ever been through. I feel they should have replaced all the sorry [XXX] run-flats way sooner I drive all over us. Buying this Lexus 500 LS has this far been a horrible DANGEROUS mistake. I need this problem fixed or I need my full money back. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
