Jul 1, 2026Engine 2024 Lexus TX 500h Luxury. Since I bought it new, the vehicle has intermittently failed to accelerate from a stop. I have reported it to my Lexus dealer at every 5,000-mile service. Lexus TAS case numbers:[XXX] and [XXX]. The dealer applied Lexus TSB L-SB-0026-25 (Hesitation From a Stop), a TCM reprogram. It reduced how often it happens but did not fix it. It still occurs, and is worse in Arizona summer heat with the A/C on max. It matches the TSB conditions: it happens when the energy monitor shows about 30% (3 of 10 bars) and within about 5 minutes of starting the vehicle. What happens: I am stopped at a green light waiting to turn left. When a gap opens I press the accelerator, and the…
Jul 2, 2026 · 21,000 milesElectrical system The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 500H. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed the "Hybrid System Malfunction" warning light illuminated. The contact stated that several days later, a secondary warning light illuminated for the battery failure. After the third failure, the "Hybrid System Malfunction - Contact Dealer" message was displayed. Additionally, the vehicle failed to start and was jumpstarted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer on several occasions for the hybrid battery and related electrical warning failures. The contact stated that there was excessive heat inside the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 21,000.
Jul 25, 2025Fuel/propulsion system The car emits very strong gas fumes into the cabin during longer drives. You can taste the gas. Has happened over 5 times. Submitted for service multiple times; on the 4th time, they were finally able to "recreate it". And the dealer confirmed the issue. No warning or check engine lights came on.
Dec 15, 2025 · 41,800 milesElectrical system › Instrument panel › Speedometer/odometer Odometer Fraud: The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 350. The contact stated that a mileage discrepancy was discovered. The vehicle was a dealer sale. The contact discovered information indicating that the vehicle was a cloned vehicle. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 39,000; however, during a service appointment, it was discovered that the vehicle mileage was 41,800.
Aug 14, 2026 · 37,000 milesVisibility › Defroster/defogger/hvac system › Condensor/evaporator The contact owns a 2024 Lexus TX 500H. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 MPH, the vehicle drove over glass in the roadway that struck the air conditioner condenser. Approximately two weeks later, the air conditioner failed to blow cool air. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was determined that the A/C condenser was damaged by the debris, causing a coolant leak. The dealer stated that the condenser needed to be replaced. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Action Number: DP26006 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 37,000.
Sep 9, 2026Fuel/propulsion system I am reporting a severe, systemic vehicle performance discrepancy on my Lexus TX 500h (2.4L Turbo Hybrid powertrain). The vehicle is officially labeled with an EPA rating of 27 MPG combined. However, under normal, conservative driving conditions, the vehicle routinely achieves only 20 to 21 MPGâa consistent 20%+ shortfall from the manufacturer's certified window sticker metrics. This has drastically limited the vehicle's safe total driving range to under 300 miles per tank. The shortfall persists despite cautious driving in Eco Mode and after passing the engine break-in period. This issue matches a widespread pattern reported by numerous other owners in consumer forums, pointing to a…
Sep 2, 2026Unknown or other I had my foot on the brakes waiting at a red light. The car just started jerking back and forth. It didnât stop until I released my foot off the brake.
Aug 15, 2026Unknown or other I am filing this complaint regarding my 2024 Lexus TX. A road rock/debris entered through the vehicleâs factory front grille and struck/punctured the A/C condenser, causing the air conditioning system to stop functioning properly. The repair cost is approximately $2,500. The factory grille has large openings that leave the condenser vulnerable to direct impact from normal road debris. Lexus does not have a protective screen or guard that can be installed to prevent this type of damage. This design flaw has affected many other Lexus TX owners and I think they need to offer up more protective measures to avoid this from happening over and over again.
