2016 Lexus GS — reported problems

CarFaultIQ holds 266 evidence records for the 2016 Lexus GS, drawn from official sources and owner complaints.

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

  • Owner complaints (1,492 records, model years 1995–2019) are most frequently classified under: speed control & accelerator, engine and brakes.
  • Transport Canada recalls (96 records, model years 1996–2020) are most frequently classified under: fuel system, electrical system and brakes.
  • Manufacturer communications (4,394 records, model years 1995–2020) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, electrical system and engine.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records

Diagnostic codes found in evidence for this vehicle

These codes appear by explicit identifier in official records matched to this exact model and year.

A code appearing in a record means the code was named in that document. It is not a diagnosis of this vehicle, not a fault this vehicle has, and not an indication of urgency. Diagnosis requires reading live data from the vehicle.
