Head lights work and then do not work . Paid $1500 to fix and still does not work ..
I purchased a cpo lexus is250 in 2008, I had intermittent headlight failure brough car into lexus and was told they couldnt reproduce the problem. Picked my car up brought it home and sure enough the headlight is out. Called lexus immediately sent a picture of the light out. Brought car back in they switched the headlight and of course the light on the same side went out again. I was very fristrated because as a female and knowing warranty was up soon I feel they didnt care. The light went out again and happens every day I had bulbs replaced and problem still happens. I have been ticketed for light flickering and going out. Driving on highway at 65mpj, check engine and check vsc light go on, car drops power and downshifts very hard, I drop to 40 MPH in the left lane of highway. Check vsc and check engine light on at 1
When operating the front headlights, the lights will fade off during driving. The bulb does not go completely out, but within a few minutes of driving, they will go out. I have to click the lights on and off for them to come back on. I have had one bulb replaced, and will have the other replaced as well. This seems to be a common issue with this vehicle as I have a co-worker that experiences the same with his is350 lexus.
Sitting still in a parking lot. Just started the car. Led lights stopped working on speedometer and RPM. Then I tried to touch my GPS and it stopped recognizing my touch. Traveling down the road, my headlights go out and I turn the light switch off and back on and my headlights come back on. Two years later (present time), my headlights still go off while driving or sitting still very frequently. My LED lights are still not working and I ended up purchasing another GPS screen and had an auto electrician install it for me. Occasionally my air conditioning system has a mind of its own by switching to different setting on its own. I have to turn it off and back on before I can change settings on it myself and sometimes it still won't let me change them. Auto electricians said that they would be chasing a ghost trying to find what is causing all the problems. I have looked up complaints on the model and year of this vehicle online and have found many others having the same problems that I am experiencing. Something needs to be done. This will cost each vehicle owner thousands of dollars before an electrician could possibly be able to find the problem and fix it .
Vehicle headlights go out while driving. I have done some research and discovered it is a major problem with this model and would like to know why there has not been a recall to address the problem. I have a 16 year old driving this vehicle and I am very concerned.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 lexus is 250. While driving approximately 55 MPH on a dark road, the headlights failed. The failure recurred on several occasions.

The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 90,000.
The headlight light bulb is out on the driver's side, but works properly when not overheated.
While driving at night the left (driver side) headlight lamp will just go out. Then I have to turn off all of the lights completely and turn them back on immediately, then it will come back on, but sometimes I can tell its out by looking at the reflection in a vehicle in front of me, then other times I don't know it's out unless someone flashes me and I'm afraid the police are going to pull me over and give me a ticket for a headlight being out. I feel there is a short somewhere because it comes back on if I turn off the lights completely and turn them back on real quick. It happens at least every night (or morning dusk to dawn hours), sometimes twice a night. Besides it being annoying it is dangerous not having both lights on while driving at night or in the rain.
