  • Lexus Quality? - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Been owned 01 mdx, 05 rx, 07 ml350,08 x5, and 09 gl450. Right now Im leasing 08 911 turbo and have 07 Prius. Ive been owned so many cars from all models of Honda to Ferrari f430. What happen to Lexus! They are increasing price with low-end quality material! Feel and look cheap plastic interior, uncomfortable seat (Im 510" n 185 lb). 2005 rx was much better! Thank god were leasing this car.

  • Problem with loose right front bumper - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    After a few weeks, I noticed that part of the right front bumper was sticking out and up. I found out that it was loose. The left side is OK. I took it back to Crown Lexus of Ontario, CA whose service rep said that they know about the problem. I was given a similar vehicle and I noticed that it has the same problem. When I picked my RX350 up, it had the same problem. They told me to drive it until Lexus can find a better solution to just installing a "bracket". I am still waiting for them to fix the problem. Check your 2010 RX350. It proabably has the same problem.

  • Love my new car - RX 350 AWD - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    When you keep cars as long as I do, its probably more of a shock when you step into a wonderfully, comfortable car - features have changed in 10 years. I love my new car - its comfortable, got amenities beyond my expectations, and has good pickup. Everything seems to be very logically laid out, and easy to use. Its got a lot of room, and drives really smoothly. It will take me awhile to get used to the quietness...

  • Fabulous ride - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Ive been driving a Mercedes ML350 which Ive loved and have honestly always disliked the soft look of the Lexus RX. Always considered it an SUV for soccer moms. However, after test driving the 2010 RX350 I was so impressed with the acceleration, smoothness and overall quietness and quality, I went back to Mercedes to test drive the 2009 ML350 and it drove like a truck in comparison. I am now a very happy owner of the 2010 RX350. Yes, it still lacks visual muscle in terms of exterior design with Lexus obviously not wanting to scare off the soccer mom fan base. The dash is somewhat confusing and not the prettiest but the mouse navigation is terrific and the ride is just plain fabulous.

  • Rattle noise, bad quality - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Got 2010 rx350 about 3weeks. Found some rattle noise from cargo cover and rattle noise inside cabin hard to know where it is at. Front bumper below front light seem loosed. Front seat not comfortable my back got hurt when driving for long time. Lexus should be the top quiet car, but 2010 RX350 is not.

  • Wind noise 2010 RX 350 - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    The wind noise is evident even at relatively low speeds. The ipod is very hard to plug in and the gas mileage is about 14 mpg in the city.

  • Problem with rustling noise - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    I bought a new one a month ago. Four- wheel drive with every option available. The car drives really nice. It feels solid and quite on highway. However, I have been hearing this rustling noise from the driver side door/window area when the road is bumpy. See if you all can produce this problem. I believe its a design issue. I was very annoyed by it at first. When the road is bumpy, or any slight uneven road, I can hear that rustling noise from the driver side door/window area. It sounds like the side window is not installed tight/correctly. Imagine you have something loose in your pocket and you hear the little noise when you jump. I heard the same thing when I drove a loaner.

  • New 2010 RX 350 - Lots of Systems Problems - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    My new 2010 RX 350 started off great. This good feeling lasted about 2 months until my first technical problem. Since the new Navi/radio system is so intricate and connected to everything, Ive had problems with the climate controls, Navitraffic, XM Satellite radio and HUD display. Im in shock. I thought Lexus quality stood for more. Well, my car has been back to the dealer 4 times, each visit averaging 3 days. Every time, the same story, we need to research this, we are unfamiliar with the new systems. I think I should have waited until they had gotten the bugs out. How frustrating my new car experience has been. Be forewarned.

  • Great Nav System, Xenon Headlights - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Picked it up a month ago. Love the Nav system - very user friendly. The mouse and menu are great to control climate, radio, etc. Drove on a dark winding road in the mountains and the swiveling xenon headlights are fantastic. As other folks have pointed out, the chemical odor is nearly overwhelming when you first pick it up. Parked it in the garage with windows open for a week.

  • 6-month Update - 2010 Lexus RX 350
    By -

    Ive had the car about 6 months now, and just completed a 3500-mile round-trip to the frozen north for the holidays. Driving 10 hours per day, the front seat left me feeling refreshed when I arrived at my destination. The XM radio entertained me, the climate control and seat heaters kept me comfortable, the nav found fuel stops for me, and all of the cars equipment performed perfectly. I prefer the new front seat armrest/console cover to the old bony sticks that folded down from the front seats. I averaged 22-23 mpg at 80 mph on hilly terrain--I think thats pretty good for a loaded SUV. Overall, a great, great car.
