I am disgusted with the way I was mistreated and misled through this whole process. The two worst panels in my car were rejected! And, everyone failed to inform me of this horrifying news until the day I was picking it up. Now that’s what I call “Customer Service”! My information was conveniently lost for the first Recall which had a deadline of May 2017, in which I entered in time. I will continue to let every accredited outlet, whether it be Social Media, Local News Media, BBB, Consumer Affairs, and last but not least, the Legal Firm in which I, and the thousands of other Lexus Owners, choose to plead our case. And, if it wasn't for Nick and Sarah, I would of only gave "1 Star". I truly believe they did as much as they were allowed. More

Truly Exceptional Service Brought my vehicle in for service approx. a month ago. From start to end, the service process was EXCELLENT. Nick was with a guest when I arrived, but Brought my vehicle in for service approx. a month ago. From start to end, the service process was EXCELLENT. Nick was with a guest when I arrived, but didn't waste anytime coming out and shaking my hand. He showed me where the coffee was, and by the time the cup was brewed, he was already grabbing me to go over my concerns. Nick is a very gregarious person, that takes pride in what he does day in and day out. Service was so good, that I even ended up buying a car that day. Thanks again for the awesome service Nick. It does not go unnoticed. More

Ruined my bulletproof Lexus Look, this is the first bad review I have ever posted. Brought my car in for an airbag recall and after that it has broken down twice. I am convinced Look, this is the first bad review I have ever posted. Brought my car in for an airbag recall and after that it has broken down twice. I am convinced they shocked the electrical system and will not accept responsibility. After driving my Lexus for 7 years, over 100,000 miles, with not one issue, one week after getting it back from their shop the alternator went out and now the starter. I was lucky with the alternator to have a long time friend fix it for under $300 (the same small shop that put an entire new timing belt in at 90,000 miles) but now this starter is being quoted at $1300! Seriously, folks. I have now been without a car for 3 months waiting to save up to fix it. I have called the dealer and Lexus and will continue to let people know! More

A NIGHTMARE I recently purchased a used 2008 Lexus LS 460. I purchased my vehicle in Texas and I live in Florida. This experience with Lexus has been a complete I recently purchased a used 2008 Lexus LS 460. I purchased my vehicle in Texas and I live in Florida. This experience with Lexus has been a complete NIGHTMARE! Now we all know once you purchase a car from the Dealership Its all shiny and pretty. I’ve noticed that the material on the inside of all 4 doors are literally MELTING. It looks HORIABLE!!!!! I tried to have it professionally detailed and it still looks BAD not to mention its STICKY to the touch. If that’s not the worse, it gets worse than that … I went to go to work and my vehicle would not START!??? I tried to get a jump, thinking it was the battery, or the starter. Nothing Worked! I got my vehicle towed to The Lexus of Clearwater Dealership…. Thinking they can help… (WRONG). I felt like all the DEALER care about is MONEY…MONEY…MONEY (How DEEP are your POCKETS!!!! I’m a SINGLE parent, my funds are accounted for. Lexus advised me that I would need to get a diagnostic test done first on the vehicle so they can see what is wrong with it, which is $100.00. Then Lexus advised me that my Fuel Pressure Sensor has went out, and need to be replaced by ME and the cost of that will be 1500.00. They didn’t mention Any RECALLs or Anything ELSE. I had to do my homework. When I looked up RECALLS for Lexus 2008 LS 460 it stated there’s a recall on the Fuel System, Gasoline, delivery Hoses, Lines, Piping and Fittings. So I called the Dealer back, and they advised that according to my VIN number my vehicle was already repaired for the recall. So I would be responsible for 1500.00 bill, I then asked to speak with someone at Corporate, So the Lexus Rep passed the buck and gave me Corp. number. I then called and made a complaint and was advised someone will call me back in 2 days. Still not having a LOANER vehicle and No source of transportation. I finally spoke with a CASE Manager at Corporate and was advised that he will look into the matter and he will call me back in another 2 days. Meanwhile I’ve been without a Vehicle for an entire week. Yet still there is no guarantee on if my vehicle would be covered under the Recall. So long story short. … I thought very highly of LEXUS and now with my material MELTING and Fuel issue’s this has been a REAL LIFE NIGHTMARE. To anyone out there reading this …Please think twice before purchasing an LEXUS, I’m being RIPPED OFF! If a Recall part went bad again, Lexus should cover that with out question. More

Service manager is a Moron I notified my sales rep couple days after I purchased a rx350 that something need to be fixed, her response no problem bringing in at your convenien I notified my sales rep couple days after I purchased a rx350 that something need to be fixed, her response no problem bringing in at your convenience will cover it! She still had the txt and showed it to the service manager. Life got in the way so I came there today for an oil change and that part to be fixed. Since I’m one month out of my three month coverage they will not cover that fix which is a $40 part! After spensing 2.5 hours there and nothing accomplished I left pissed with nothing done to my car. I’ll get my oil changes and services done somewhere else. They just lost a new lifetime customer over $40. What a Moron!!!! Worst service department Ever. More

Service above and beyond the call of duty. I've written previously to say that I do buy used Lexus vehicles from Lexus of Clearwater, in part because they're a great dealership, in part because I've written previously to say that I do buy used Lexus vehicles from Lexus of Clearwater, in part because they're a great dealership, in part because Lexus makes a great product, but mostly because my Service Advisor, Mike Aloia gives me outstanding service. Late last week my wife and I returned to Tampa Bay after an extended absence only to find that the interior of her RX 330 was covered in a light mold. I had the car washed inside and out just before we left town, so if sat for over two weeks and the residual moisture trapped in the car's interior, coupled with the lack of ventilation, created ideal conditions for runaway mold growth. This was discovered on a Friday. On the following Tuesday, just three days away, my daughter and three grandchildren were arriving and would be using the car extensively, and should not be exposed to all the mold. In desperation, I called Mike Aloia on the only number I had in my cell phone for Mike to see what he could do on such short notice. It turns out Friday was Mike's day off and I had called him on his cell number. Nonetheless, Mike called me back from his cell phone - and on his day off - and had everything arranged - including a loaner vehicle - to have me bring the car in first thing Monday morning for a deep cleaning service, if that should be necessary! I don't think it gets any better that this when it comes to customer service! Mike Ertel More
