Just a request for the Pearl White owners of pre-2008 (actually, pre-first half of 2008) GX's.
If you have any paint defects, peeling, cracking, etc. Please call Lexus corporate @ 800-255-3987 and log a complaint. They will most likely tell you your vehicle isn't covered by the recall...that's fine, just ask them to log it as a complaint and then take it in to your local dealer.
Ask THEM to take pictures and log the complaint after THEY tell you your vehicle isn't covered by the recall. Then call corporate back and let them know what the dealer said.
Many, many Toyotas and Lexus' are affected by the crappy Pearl White paint and they should be covering the 2004-2007's just as they are the 2008 and 2009's...it's the same paint. They have literally said not enough of the earlier vehicle owners have complained.
I did the above this week and will be following up with corporate tomorrow. Check out the posts in the the Facebook Groups - https://www.facebook.com/groups/288416678661392/ group...it isn't active anymore but there's lots of good info.
thanks,
Russ (with a peeling '07)
