2004 Lexus ES 330 from North America

Faults:

I have a 2004 Lexus 330 with 33,000 miles on it. The passenger seat keeps falling apart. I have taken it back to the dealer and they just pop it back in place. My passenger seat is rarely occupied, the car is not driven on a daily basis. We usually use my husbands Expedition with is a 1994 and has over 100,000 miles on it. The side door panel carpet is coming apart. I think the car was put together very cheap! I had a Lexus ES300 previous and never had a problem with it. Lexus has come up in sales that they are not taking pride in putting the cars together anymore.

Great Review and well written. I just bought two Lexus 300 and could not be happier. The navagation system is a dream and the ride and mileage could not be more pleasant.

To me, the ES300 look just like a Camry. I have a 2006 ES300.I traded a 2004 Toyota Camry for it. The Camry drives better than the ES300.I'm still glad I bought the ES300. Lexus LS430 is next.

I bought a new Lexus ES300 in Dec-2005 and I enjoy driving it. It is a spacious & comfortable car at a reasonable price.

I had experienced other brands in the past 15 years including those made in Germany and Japan.

Lexus ES300 is the best of all so far.

I bought my Lexus ES300 at end-2005 and found a small defect on the coating of the woodgrain steering wheel 2 days after it was delivered to me. The defect was like a crack on the lacquer coating of the steering wheel. A month later, I found yet another crack on the wheel, this time, it was bigger.

I discussed with car experts and was told that the defects were probably caused by formation of coating on the substrate that was not properly treated in the car factory. Lexus has now agreed to replace the steering wheel for me.

I do not know where did you hear about the discontinue of ES production. but check the Lexus website, there`s even 07 version of the new ES coming out.

The ES300 has being discontinued in Australia, from what I heard it was because of the introduction of the IS250 or it could have been the GS, but I could be wrong.

I owned an ES350 for a year, it is a great automobile, the only thing I noticed was little paint chipping in the front head light, but I am not sure if this was a small rock that hit it in the high way. This is an excellent car. My wife traded it for (believe it or not) a Mini Cooper!!!
