 The engine makes a noise like a sloppy piston or a rod knocking. the car is a 2010 lexus rx350 with 69000 miles. what is interesting here ia the fact that the issue was discussed with the service group on a recent confrence call but the staff was told to keep it quiet. is toyota playing the games again?

 I have a new 2010 lexus rx 350 keep stalling while i was waiting for traffic light, problem stated soon after i started driving , while mileage was around 1500, when the car stalled abs (anti brake system) sign showed up. i took the cars several times back to lexus, they used their computer to check computer records of my cars and claimed nothing wrong with the car, until the third time i went back , the brake malfunction warning sign showed up while lexus's technician was inside the car with me, then they kept the car 10 days and repaired the problem, but still claimed nothing else is wrong with the car, cannot explain why the car stalled, they claimed computer of my car didn't record any stalled history therefore no proof car stalling problem. i told them the computer of my car is so defect that they didn't find brake malfunction problem until the sign showed up in dashboard, why are they still rely on the computer? they kept the car for 10 days to repair a brake, how come it takes 10 days? i believe they found out that the car has more than brake problems, and they know all the lexus car has potential pending problem, either electronically or computer that control the electronic , imagine if my car stalled while i was driving on the high way, for the safety of all the cars on the street, your division should look into the problem of not only toyota but also lexus and other cars made by toyota motor inc. *tr

 As i reverse out of my driveway, which is on an incline, onto a flat main roadway, the vehicle stalls (while still in reverse). this has happened multiple times on my 2010 lexus rx 350, as well as previously on my 2008 lexus 350.
