Lexus newsgroup here, NOT toyota so Is Lexus involved?

[mcbrue]

I know that my 2006 Lexus 430 Ultima has had several (about 12000
worth) minor problems. One of these is an on-going front bumper
proximity sensor problem. It is an obvious computer related problem,
and the dealership does not even seem to want to get new parts in for
it under warranty anymore. A couple of other of the problems have been
computer related. So my question is - have there been any of the
acceleration related problems reported for Lexus vehicles? The
acceleration problem of Toyota does seem to be computer related. My
own Lexus just sits for a second or so before taking off when I floor
the accelerator, so there is some mild connexion there. I don't really
want to debate whether or not my car has had problems, nor whether the
dealership has been sucky or not, just want to hear if any Lexi are
involved in the computer related acceleration problems.

FYI, the plural for "Lexus" is "Lexus."

Lexus models included in the pedal entrapment recall are
2006-2010 IS 250 and IS 350
2007-2010 ES 350.

According to Toyota, no Toyota models are involved in any computer-related
acceleration problems, either.
