Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This is not a failure as a problem. on making turns - l or r - the car will "stumble". that is it will hesitate. when i asked about it, they said it is because lexus uses a "sensor" instead of a wire for the injection control. they say lexus knows of it but has done nothing, yet (no fatalities yet?). i do not feel it is safe. it does not do this on a straight away acceleration. however, if you start to accelerate then let of, the car has a very noticable "jerk".
