Why is Lexus NOT on recall list?

That's a little harsh^^^^ LOLZ

You are also blessed with ignorance. It takes like what, 2 secs. to remove a floormat (you call that a recall) and you are 100% satisifed the problem is solved. Believe me, if that was your family in the car, you'd be singing a different story here...and it aint about floormats.

Just be thankful it did not happen to your family. So you're damn right I'm upset. Toyota is announcing this huge recall and forgetting to include big brother. There is a young girl without a father, mother and sister now. You think that's something to laugh about?

Who's laughing?

Uh.. I think maybe you are the one blessed with ignorance. The Toyota recall is on gas pedals made by CTS on cars built in the U.S. The same Toyota models made in Japan with parts from Denso do not have this problem. Lexus models are all made in Japan with the exception of the RX (some made in Canada) and they do not use the same gas pedals.
I love how he completely ignored this, which is the probably the main reason why Lexus isn't affected by the recall.

everyone just take a deep breath and chill...........this crap will get fixed and Toyota/Lexus will survive (believe me).
#23
most cars will override throttle when the brakes are on.... thats why we cant brake boost stock ecu porches... i know its partly a manf. defect but commmmee onnnnn would it happen to any of us??? and the 911 operater says "pray"... wowwww how about saying nuetral!!!.... really stupid freak thing that happened on all parts.. and its strange that the brake does not override throttle from the get go..
#24
i read somewhere that God is about to recall Humans, as they are prone to stupidity.

You are blessed with ignorance - only a few are given that special gift from above...be very thankful you are one of the few.
So when your Lexus gas pedal get stuck (due to floormat issue) and you hit a tree at 100+mph (with your family on board), I'll make sure to tell your love ones not to sue Toyota, because you said it here, not me..."Toyota is not Lexus and Lexus isn't Toyota."

There was a recall for ES350 and IS250 and 350...............
I am hearing that the Floor mat recall was a cover-up from higher up in the big automaker. They always knew that there was a problem with the gas pedal/ignition push start cut-off mode/ Brake system.

The IS-F is not afflicted by the recall, so your response is a moot point in regards to my car.
You being a Dodge Viper owner, a car on the brink of being scratched completely because of poor sales and lack of interest from a car that gets 10 mpg should at least understand the big picture. I'm considering a used ZR1 in the next year or so, would you disuade me from my purchase because GM is in total chapter 7 and 11 (complete liquidation) and has one of the worst reputations in regards to reliability?

First off Viper can have poor sales. It was never meant to sale for the Masses like the IS-F. The Viper brand is a Halo sports car. I mean since the birth of the Viper in 1992 till now only about 25K Vipers were made. Period!!!!! You can’t put Viper and a IS-F in the same sentence (two completely different cars for completely different a performance, completely different production of car). Viper is a raw race car made for the streets. And as far as mpg? Is that why you own a IS-F? If you have to talk about gas mileage and own a high hp car. Buy an ES300 or a Hummer to make that bad gas mileage statement (that’s why Hummer is going away). And MPG that is not why dodge (the parent company of the Viper brand) is in trouble. Actually Dodge's troubles have nothing to do with the Viper. And what you are talking is the past, Dodge is actually not in trouble with the Viper Brand leaving (hence the ACR-X a plus 100k race track only car). Viper has been breaking and passing world track time records next to half-million to million dollar exotic elite sports cars for a more than a decade now. They are actually keeping the low produced, hand made, 200mph off the showroom floor Viper around. Its just keeps setting the bar higher in the race track world. I own all my cars (no loans) and resale on the Viper fell like all other cars out there including Lamborghini, Ferrari, etc. I don’t see your point??? I can sell my used Viper right now and buy a IS-F brand new with the same money.
I am not trying to turn this topic into something different but you need to get the facts straight. I was not speaking directly about the ISF but the company as a whole. AND YES Toyota is the parent company of Lexus. A Lexus ES is an upscale Toyota Camry just open the hood and look at the engine.
FYI, sorry for any spelling errors.

I don't/didn't buy my car because I'm concerned about resale value. Cars are the single worst investement you can make, and nothing depreciates more the second you drive it off the lot. I'm not a car collector, I'm a car enthusiast and I don't purchase cars for financial gain.

This is a Lexus forum not Toyota, so I'm not sure as to the validity and purpose of you posting a link to an article regarding Toyota recalls!
