2023 Lexus LX

Complaints for the 2023 Lexus LX cluster heavily around the engine. Owners most commonly describe sudden loss of power while driving, often accompanied by all warning lights illuminating at once and a dashboard message prompting them to pull over immediately. Several owners report the vehicle entering a reduced-power state, commonly called limp mode, that leaves little time to reach a safe stopping point. One owner reports complete engine failure at roughly 25,000 miles. The fuel and propulsion system draws a smaller number of complaints, with owners describing related propulsion loss consistent with the engine reports. A single complaint references brake behavior. A recurring frustration across multiple engine-related reports is that owners were notified of a safety campaign but told no repair remedy was yet available, leaving them in limbo on a vehicle they consider unsafe to drive.

Complaints are owner-reported and reflect individual experiences, not confirmed defects. They are distinct from recalls. Data sourced from the national vehicle safety complaint database.
