Mr.Baldwin brought his 1995 Lexus into our service facility in November of 2016 to check for a problem with his car shifting and jerking and not accelerating above 45 MPH when cold.After topping off the transmission fluid level our technician noted after a road test that the transmission slips under load and believed the issue could be a torque converter problem causing the shifting issue and would lead to potential transmission failure unless rectified,at this point Mr. Baldwin declined any further work.Over the next six months he took his car to at least three independent service garages and was told the transmission was ok but has admitted to us that the problem still existed.He then came back to our store several months later and demanded to have the service history relating to his car deleted from Lexus National Service records because he was going to sell his car and didn't want any record of possible transmission problems to deter a new buyer.We are unable to delete records on any Lexus car from the National data base but have offered to recheck his car and if it shifts as designed we would note that in the national computer history.Approxamately seven months after his first visit he attempted to sue us for $3600. For the future loss of profit if a new buyer was to see his service history and the mention of a past transmission shifting problem.We responded to his lawsuit and attempted to set a court date and Mr. Baldwin's suit was dismissed.We would still be more than happy to reopen a new service order stating that his car no longer displays ans issues with the transmission and operates as designed by the factory.

Lexus retained lawyers to kick my case out of small claims court. The $3,600 was the cost that Lexus quoted me to replace the transmission. Their lawyers filed a motion to have my case dropped out of CIVIL COURT. Lexus had already tried to have my case removed from SMALL CLAIMS, but was denied! Mr Morgan would never return my calls. At my very first convention with him at the dealership, he promised to call me back. He never did. I made at least two other attempts to discuss the resolution with him BEFORE I filed my small claims court case. Before I wrote my negative review on their website, I visited Lexus to inform them what my next step would be if they do not charge their WRONG diagnosis. Mr. Morgan was not there so I left a message for him to call me. As characteristic, he never called! Now I am fead up with Lexus! Their attitude is arrogant. Their golden rule is: “I have the gold and I will set the rules.” I told Mr. Morgan during my very first discussion with him that I would not accept their miss-diagnosis and that I would do everything I could to get them to change the report on Lexus’ National Data Base. Mr. Morgan was totally unaffected. My next step is to “go public.” Lexus will come to regret disrespecting me and being so arrogant!

Despite your threats, I respectfully still extend our invitation for you to have your transmission issue reevaluated and noted in your car's National Service history that any shifting issues have been reconciled and the car now operates as designed.
