Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I realize that my problem, with a bad radio is not a mechanical one. however, i am sending this for your information, and to indicate that lexus does not live up to its ads as pursuing perfection i have spoken to a number of people at lexus, in my dealership and at the main office over a period of 10 months. i have even written to the vice president of lexus. he did not reply to my first letter so i sent him a second letter, certified. return receipt. i received a response to that second letter from someone at customer relations. in addition to that call, i have received a call from a service manager at the dealership where i purchased my car, and from another person. the final decision seems to be that, although they know that this is a problem with the radio in the es 300, and that they realize that it is due to a faulty antenna in the rear window, but there is nothing that they can do about it. i told that person that is not acceptable to me and am waiting for a response which i assume will be negaztive.
