Re: Horrific Repairs at 124K Miles!
I am a new member to the Lexus Owners Club. My RX- 350, SUV is currently at the local Lexus Dealership for the replacement of Spark Plugs. According to my advisor, this service is apart of the routine maintenance and is generally done at the 120k Mileage mark. Earlier today, I contacted my service advisor to check the status of the spark plug replacement and was horrified when he told me I needed 2 huge additional repairs.
-I have a Rear Main Seal, Oil Leak, where the transmission bolts to engine. (was told the oil is leaking in manner where it staying on the engine parts only. (Cost, $2,000)
-Was told the "the Boot is ripped on my steering rack" and it is leaking power steering fluid. (Cost, $1,000)
Help! Are these repairs normal for an RX-350 with 124K miles on it?
This is my 2nd RX, I do not recall having repairs of this manitude at 124K miles.
Any suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shayla
