My car is exhibiting signs of a failed brake actuator. Since I drive well below the average number of miles a year Lexus is refusing to cover any repairs of this brake actuator issue that is a know problem as described in your bulletin L-SB-0009-23. Lexus offered 100% coverage on this for up to 10 years or 150,000 miles, again since I drive so few miles I was 1year 9 months outside the coverage window. They refuse to assist with any of the repaid cost estimated at $6,600. They have essentially left me with an unsafe automobile on a technicality.
