Is It Luck, Or Am I A Guinea Pig On My Gx?

[denslexusgx470]

ok. this seemed appropiate in this forum so i thought of posting this here.

Now I've mentioned before (in the GX forum) that I had both my rear door lock and passenger door lock bust out, meaning they won't open unless the dealer opens up the sidings (painful to think about considering they might scratch it up and leave rattles).

Yesterday, my DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK is starting to bust out. :chairshot: :chairshot:

Why i'm saying that it's just starting to, because it's showing the same symptoms it showed on both the rear and passenger doors. So this time, i'm gonna have it fixed right away.

Now here's my question, is this happening because Lexus is known for busted door locks, bad luck, or because I'm a guinea pig at this vehicle (bought it the second month it first came out) so that there are a lot of "bugs" on it??

<_< :chairshot:

I've never known a door lock to break on any of the Lexus cars that I have owned or that my family has owned (10 total over 12 years).

Ultimately you shouldn't buy the first production run of any product - especially an automobile. Generally speaking the first year is the year to work out the bugs.

One would have thought that with Lexus they would have worked most of those out since you're basically sharing the Toyota 4 Runner platform w/ many of the same switches, controls, hardware, etc. from other Lexus models.
