Sevice Recall Campaign

[LOVESAN]

1) My wife's Silver exterior RX330 was made in 04/03 and we purchased in 05/03, 6 months later we received a notice from Lexus on the "Exhaust Manifold converter Assemblies". Total charges for the service Campaign was $1,487.30 and i really don't notice anything different; does anyone else had the same service campaign done and notice something ? <_<

2) 09/03 (4 months after purchase date) both driver and passenger side Sun Visor covers couldn't stay open, which were stuck with the fabic behind the hinge. This SOP (special order parts) waiting time was 7-8 weeks. :(

3) 03/04 (10 months after purchase date) when mobile service tech was performing a 10k miles service the hood shock couldn't stay up and wasn't able to support the hood so they had to place another SOP (special order parts) on this; waiting time was 2 weeks. A hood shock that didn't even last over a year after manufacture date ?

Can item #2 & #3 caused by southen California hot weather ?

and would it to be likely to happen again ? :cries:

Excess heat on the strut can help crap them out early but a year is pretty quick

The visor i have no idea about.
