Your welcome, happy to add interesting things I find -
I'll reply to your (Alvin's) comment that starts with "I just bought a used 2007 Lexus LS460 with 205,000 miles." in case anybody else got here like me, while looking to answer the same question. The cheapest and maybe best way to go would be to buy a radiator (image) and have your local mechanic install it. The radiator itself at $246.80 is relatively cheap, especially for OEM (the price shown was on 11-22-2024). And I'm guessing the reason your mechanic quoted you only $300, might be that he's done it before on an LS, and already knows it's a quick repair that won't take him a long time to do. -
So Danny if you're still following this comment - I'm very interested, how did you finally fix your trunk latch? Did you replace or repair the motor? and did you use OEM or aftermarket parts?

Mileage? Service history (i.e. have you ever flushed or at least changed your ATF trans fluid?). An ATF flush, or at least a simple drain and refill, is the first thing I'd try. And if you do that (it cost me $250 to have it done at an independent trans shop, for my 2017 LS460 w 69,500 miles at the time) and the transmission function seems to improve, even if only a little, then I might go ahead and do a complete fluid flush, and then cross my fingers.
