I have 700 miles on my 400h but horrors of horror, on and off (about say 10 times) I have floored the accelerator (not totally, about 75%) to test the acceleration...which is awesome. I can't say I redlined it (though can't tell as there is no tachometer) but is it REALLY BAD for my engine break in and long-term car health? Also, some people have mentioned they are getting 27+ mpg within the first month of owning the vehicle. I can't seem to breach the 24 mark. Should I get it checked by the dealership just yet? I do try all the tricks to keep the ICE off the back. Thanks for your suggestions in advance.

My apologies for double posting this message but not sure which thread it is most pertinent to and would like any relevant feedback that anyone may have. We may be taking delivery soon of a new 400h and then taking off immediately for a family vacation that might quickly add 1500-2000 miles to the RX. For the most part we would not be near any Lexus dealers during the trip although a greater probability of being near some toyota dealers. Are there any reports that anyone is aware of significant or debilitating problems arising in the 400h in the first 2000 miles or so? I read of someone's A/C going out but any others to be aware of that could affect the drivability of the vehicle? Thank you. |
