I have a 2011 1st generation model. 250 k kilometres here is what went wrong. The left rear wheel bearing, 12 volt battery and a couple of light bulbs.That is it. So far a great car obviously. I’d buy another one in a second.
Lexus number#1 reliable car brand. No idea where these alleged problems originated. Probably a handful of dumb customers who either failed to maintain the car properly or drove it like an idiot.
You are wrong. The title is correct. It's not at all reliable car. 12v battery will be gone quickly.. I mean dead.. Replacing cost $200. AirCon filter, Pollen filter, So noisy engine, Sometimes Auto wipers won't work.. and finally tail light stores lott of rain water.. This is why they discontinued the model.. It's not reliable..
Have a 2013 with 280k. Never changed the timing chain or head gasket, or battery. Doesn’t burn a drop of oil. Still averages about 43.5 mpg. Great car.
@@teekayy9879 No they never really fixed it. But this issue is not a common where I live, I only see this issue from US user. Either they don't maintain their cars well or something with weather/fuel or whatever causes it.
Hi, I am thinking of buying a LEXUS CT 1.8 200H ADVANCE 5d 134 BHP that I test-drived today in Gwent, UK. I am not sure about its Battery. It is on 67177 millage already. Do you think the battery would be reliable? It is gonna be my first car. Any tips to discuss it with the dealer about the battery and other features of the car for peace of mind? Thanks!
Been looking for a while at buying one but not fully convinced yet by it. At the minute I drive a mini which is full of issues and would want that next car don’t give the same hassle
as compared to any other vehicle brand, toyotas are most reliable ones. i personally have this car and it is pretty reliable car just like a Toyota Prius because engine is same with better Lexus interior in this car. check for car condition before buying a used one with lower miles on it.
@@sandrokakhetelidze5729 looking forward to hearing more, I have already wasted 300$ going to stupid mechanics one took the heat shield off , and one said they found a socket from a socket wrench on top of my heat shield and charged me 250 to remove it bec they took 2 hours trying to find the problem which I call bullshit on

Well said, CT200h have many problems.. It's not at all reliable car. 12v battery will be gone quickly.. I mean dead.. Replacing cost $200. AirCon filter, Pollen filter, So noisy engine, Sometimes Auto wipers won't work.. and finally tail light stores lott of rain water.. This is why they discontinued the model.. It's not reliable..

Thanks for sharing
That’s amazing! Are you the first owner?
170k miles on mine. Only issue has been head gasket. Which is common on the years 2013 and below. Great vehicles.
How you found out that you have a problem with head gasket?
So after 2013 did they fix head gasket and EGR problem ?

223000 miles on. my 2014 , changed chain, got ABS acting on U turn, thats it. Great car

Rattling enginge for me... Changed clutch disc twice, but same problem.

Batteries will be at 97% in like 10 years. Basically the last part of the car you need to worry about.

My 2012 drank oil like crazy
Thank you
You're welcome

what on earth are you speaking about? It has eCVT which just mimics a traditional CVT transmission, those gearboxes are not the same
Model 2012 and i have 0 problems 😒
