Narrative

On 3 different occurrences. Regarding rear-left gate foot sensor. Vehicle rear lift-gate as closed when feet are planted on ground while unloading groceries from the vehicle. This claim has also been confirm with dealership as Diagnostics Technician was able to duplicate issue. First incident hit spouse on the head. Second time hit myself. 3rd was able to dodge lift-gate closing down. Treasure Coast Lexus Diagnostics technician advised to disable feature and when needed to enable. That doesn't resolve the safety issue as the occurrence of lift-gate closing could still occur when feature is enabled. New vehicle purchase 5/21/2024. Its at dealership waiting for repairs.
