| We bought a lexus 450h 3 month ago. on last saturday, when the car hit curb at starting speed, the steer wheel turns 90 degree. the left front tire has only very small impact, some dust mark can be easily wiped off. the car is still drivable, but we are afraid that this car may loss control very easily, especially when it is off road on bumpy road. dealer is still talking with the factory to check whether the factory warranty will cover the damage. | |||
