Just purchase 2017 GX 460 brand new from a dealer. car had 2 miles before i test drove it. Previously i was driving 2006 GX470. Let me tell you GX470 i really a luxury SUV and drives the way Lexus should drive. After driving for a week GX460 i started to notice a light vibration in steering wheel which was kind of odd to me since car has only 200 miles. I took it to dealership, they tested it out and stated you wheels are slightly off balance. (ok can happen not a big deal). I picked it up and drove for another day. Same issue plus car is pulling to the right. Called dealer and made appointment again. After evaluation dealer said you alignment is slightly off and performed alignment (very strange to me for a brand new car). After driving another day same issue just car pull to the left. Dealer had my car for 3 days, and when i picked it up dealer states everything is tested and drives better than any new Lexus on a lot. Today i will be returning it again because problem is still there plus navigation can't get calibrated. At least 2 times a week navi is off by good 15 miles. This lexus does not have power to it at all when driving on a street (my 2010 Accord 4cyl if faster than this GX ) plus when you driving it it feels like you riding a horse. THIS IS NOT A CAR THAT LEXUS USED TO MAKE. Save your money and get MB. I can't wait to get out of this car. Now it has only 600 Miles and i got nothing but problems. Lexus stated it drives like it should. VERY BUMPY ride, NOISY and not worth spending 65K. PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS LEXUS UNLESS YOU LOOKING FOR HEADACHE.

Lexus deactivated remote start function because customers do not use their APP. This APP charge customer $160/year. This app has a lot of bugs. Winter is very cold. A lot of inexpensive mode cars have this basic function without any fee.

It's a great SUV. It's got plenty of power and feels great on the road.

GX 460 Nice Vehicle

We've owned a 2017 GX since Apr '17 and have had no problems. Only had a battery replaced, but that was no issue really. Sure, it is far from perfect, the GX does have old school V8 and 6 speed, which do need updating in some form and of course gas mileage is not good. But we love Lexus quality and reliability. I'm sad for those having problem with vehicle. We also had a 2010 GX and not issues. I'm surprised to hear other owners having issue with pull to one side or vehicle tilting to one side. That has to be suspension problem on their vehicles. Doesn't make sense dealer cannot find the problem. Keep in mind, if you go to dealer 3 times to fix a problem and they do not fix it, use the LEMON LAW actions to get them to take it back. Every state has the LEMON LAW. Document your problem and put the paperwork in.

I stole this title from a YouTube video I watched before buying one of these. You have to know what this is before buying it. This is an old school vehicle. It is incredibly well built, will handle any weather you can throw at it, and will last forever if you do just basic maintenance. It is not fast, it is not fuel efficient, it does not have the latest tech. But it is a supremely well made machine that will carry you, your family, your boat/toys comfortably and quietly anywhere and back. My father owned 2 of the older LX470 vehicles and they drove just as well with 150k miles on them as when they were new. If you know anything about the GX or any of the other vehicles that come from this Toyota factory, they are built to LAST. You will notice that with everything you touch in this vehicle. It is built to be used hard and still work great many years from now. I really hope that Lexus does not discontinue this product as I would love to buy an updated one that still uses the same body on frame robust build quality, while perhaps taking the chance to add some modern features that this vehicle is lacking.
