What i meant to say is that he shouldnt worry. This person is picking up a vehicle from out of state and then taking a trip. I have had american cars that were not trouble free in the first few months of ownership, you can go to any forum on here and see testimony to that. To pick one, there is a Ford Exploder thread here where a person posts that their new car broke down before they made it out of the dealers parking lot. Mostly that is the luck of the draw. Some of this technology is new, the vehicles are loaded with features, something is bound to not be perfect. If this forum is meant to help people i dont see where your sarcasm is of any benefit.

Yep! 14, but i spend my days readin all tha magazines that i got subscriptions with and on the internet. Gonna chage my profile too soon. Lexus RX400h, only read this today actually on a tv channel website that has a car section. Only one force does so yet and its on trial, other forces may follow and apprentyl they ise something like 390,000 litres of petrol a year and so are thinking about the enviromental impact of burning all this fuel. www.channel4.com/4car, go to news scroll down, its on there

Did not mean to offend you. I own cars that are decades-old (mainly family heirlooms) and just the thought of a problem-ridden car during the first months of ownerships imo seems incomprehensible. Then again I do know some VW/Audi owners.

It's so easy for things to be taken differently than you intended when you posted them. Let's not let this deteriorate into a personal dispute please. Thanks!

Thanks to katzjamr for your always helpful and informative responses to my inquiries. As they say in the UK, always spot on. Dewey is right too that one can always count on something going wrong, but hopefully in my case it won't happen in the first 2K miles and it won't be debilitating or terribly unconformtable (i.e A/C going out) in any way. A couple minor defects I can handle.
 
I was wondering whether any trend of issues had arisen that I might get the dealership focused before taking delivery so as to lessen the chances of a problem arising while driving through the outback of the US western states. Due to these fine threads I have already raised the issue of the HID headlights being secured as best as possible. Don't want those ripped off when hundreds of miles from the nearest Lexus dealership. Any other reasonably possible problems of significance that might be unique to the RX or 400h that might jump out if Murphy's Law goes into effect?

Test drive the car. Several RH owners have had alignment problems. Some said it was computer related some said wheel alignment. They would pull one way or the other. Should be able to tell in a short test drive.

Sell them back to other RX owners on the black market. The HID you buy may be your own.....

There are many instances of stolen HIDs. Mainly the Acuras are stolen as some of them fit right into the Hondas.
