I spend at least 3 months in Florida. Can anyone tell me of a positive experience with a Lexus Dealer there. Thanks

LS430 Weird Problem by billsoter

I just experienced a weird problem with my 2003 LS430 which I've owned for 3 1/2 years. The car is always garaged and this morning when I went to get it I found all 4 windows about half way down and the moon roof flipped open. The doors were also locked. This happened once before about 2 years ago.
I can understand triggering the remote control inadvertently since I always have it in my pocket. Or it could be triggered from a spurious source. However, there is no remote control for the windows that I know of.
Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? Has anyone else experienced it?

I think that if you hold the Unlock button down for more than a second, it will roll down the windows. Don't know about the moon roof though.

Need to check the owner's manual. One can open all windows and sunroof by holding the button down for several seconds (in the unlock position). Also, you can open or close all windows and sunroof by inserting the key in the door lock and holding in the unlock or lock position for a few seconds. This feature is useful in warm/hot climates when you want to open all windows and sunroof before you get in the car. Also, did you know your headlights will go "off" after exiting if you click the lock button twice. Lot's of nice stuff.

"did you know your headlights will go "off" after exiting if you click the lock button twice. Lot's of nice stuff."
 
We have our headlights programmed to go "off" after I turn the car off and open the door. There were three options, I think, that I had to choose from.
 
The dealer programs these according to which choice we select, as well as the windows/sunroof feature. They can be changed at the Lexus service department, and perhaps other independents may be able to do it.

It's my understanding that the Lexus dealer will reprogram selected items "free" (one time)during the first twelve months of ownership. I'm very satisfied with the vehicle the way it was set up at the factory, but pleased that they give me a choice.

I don't know where in Florida you are, but the following link will provide you with Lexus Elite Dealers for Sales and Service. There should be one near you.

Lexus Service Issues Must Go to Dealers 1st by slexy1

I just learned a lesson the hard way. I have an "out of warranty" issue concerning my 2001 LS 430's trunk lid mechanism. I was just told that I should have gone to the dealer I serviced the car at most before I called the Lexus 800 # and got turned down based on the VIN # and records on my car. I am now trying the D.O.M. (District Office Manager) through my main service dealer who is located in Torrance, Ca. Lexus HQ's.
 
I blogged about the issue here:
