What are some common problems with the Lexus ES 350?

I’m shopping for a new car, but little did I know that used luxury cars seem to depreciate much faster than others. As such, I’m looking at a Lexus ES 350 for my next vehicle. I just want to make sure I don’t buy a lemon. Are there any common problems with the Lexus ES 350?

No matter what year you decide to buy, keep an eye out for some of these common problems with the Lexus ES 350:
  • Low oil pressure and oil leaks
  • Issues with the infotainment system, which disallows users from using the radio or Bluetooth
  • Dashboard chipping, cracking, and becoming discolored, even without exposure to sunlight
With a four-star out of five-star reliability rating from RepairPal, the
Lexus ES 350
ranks 4th out of 31 cars in the luxury sedan segment. While the car is dependable, certain model years (2011 to 2015 in particular)** are less reliable than others.
