The 2012 Lexus RX 350 lived for 2 years in California before I bought it and brought it to Arizona. I have had is a couple of years . I bought a Lexus because my Camry was virtually repair free year after year. I kept that gem for 10 years. Today , at barely 4 years of age the car has a radiator leak problem. Apparently the parts are made from plastic and in the heat,,, yes it is hot here, the plastic breaks down and we have a leak. Apparently to fix this requires that the whole bumper has to come off resulting in at least 5 hours of work and over $500 just for the labor. I was stunned! Please do not tell me that every 4 years I am going to have to have the radiator fixed or repaired. This is for us a major financial issue and one I think people should know about. It is interesting to go back and read this. The Lexus repair guy lied to me. Before I had it repaired I took it to another Lexus dealer and we determined that was absolutely NO leaking radiator. Needless to say we do not take our cars to that dealership anymore. We travelled 11,000 miles in the car this past summer through Canada and the US. It worked just fine except the GPS system failed us many times ,,,,several times it was dangerous missing signs and then darting off because of the late information. Hopefully the systems will get better. Also, I was told that the oil should be changed every 3,000 miles and that reminder comes up on my screen but it turns out from the research is it every 10,000 miles. Otherwise, I continue to love the vehicles.

Have had this 2012 Rx350 for 9 years my first Lexus had 2 Mercedes and hands done the Lexus has been more affordable to operate. In 9 years only replaced battery twice tires and brakes. Only use Michelin tires on my vehicles. After 117000 miles she still purrs and handles the road ! I am sold on Lexus!

They will love the feel of the steering wheel as well as how sharply this car can be turned in a narrow space.
