I am very pleased with my new 2013 Lexus 450 hybrid. We had a tutorial to review the electronics and the helpful instructor adjusted the door unlocking so that all doors unlock when I use the key device to unlock. This worked this morning when I unlocked the car but then subsequently it reverted back to unlocking only the driver's side. I went to the Menu and confirmed that the Unlock All Doors option was still selected. It was, so I don't understand why this is happening. Of course, this is a trivial matter and we love the car. I was surprised by this minor 'malfunction' and wondered if others had encountered this.

Thank you all, our garage is under our building and there is no power outlet nearby our parking space that I could use. However, I do use it once midweek, usually Thursday. If that amount of mid-week usage would work, I am relieved. I must admit that I am very surprised to hear that there would even be a concern if car not driven every few days. (So going to the garage and just running it for 10-15 minutes would not work?) I will discuss with the dealer when my Lexus arrives this coming week. I am hopeful that a mid-week use should keep battery working but will enquire about the best solution for my situation. Again, thank you all for your replies and most helpful suggestions. Karen

We just bought a new Lexus SUV 450 Hybrid. We have not received it yet but are very excited. I am reading some of the topics and am concerned about one thing. I walk to work and will therefore only be using my car on weekends. (My husband doesn't drive). Our car is in a garage under our building although it is not entirely closed off but is protected from the elements. Will I have trouble starting my hybrid on the weekends after not using it during the week? The dealer didn't say anything about this but I am reading about difficulty starting it if not used for a few days!
