jimbeam Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Has something like this happened to anyone? I was out of town for a few days, and when I returned home, my 2006 RX400h would not start. I had to get to work, so I took my wife's car. She called Lexus, and they came out immediately (arrived in less than 30 minutes, and the dealership is about 15-20 minutes away). She tells me that the person who came out said the vehicle had a bad battery cell, and replaced it (at no charge - apparently a warranty repair). He also said that it had nothing to do with not driving it for a few days. The service was certainly fantastic, but I wonder whether this is something that is liable to happen again.

RX400h Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 This happens to more vehicles than you think. The vast majority of factory batteries are super-reliable and long-lasting but there are a small percentage that fail prematurely - kinda like a bad computer, right out of the box. It happens! Still, it's good you were treated so well. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
