2024 Lexus NX 350 SUV AWD Safety Features

Here are the safety features that come as standard on the 2024 Lexus NX 350 SUV AWD

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC is an advanced safety feature in vehicles designed to help drivers maintain control during challenging driving conditions. By continuously monitoring various factors such as steering angle, vehicle speed, and individual wheel speeds, ESC can detect and reduce the risk of skidding or loss of control. It achieves this by automatically applying brakes to specific wheels to stabilize the vehicle.

Standard
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is a safety feature in vehicles that helps prevent frontal collisions by alerting the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle or obstacle ahead. Using sensors such as radar or cameras, FCW monitors the distance and speed of vehicles in front, and if it detects a potential collision, it provides visual and/or auditory warnings to prompt the driver to take evasive action.

Standard
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is a safety feature in vehicles that alerts drivers when their vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its lane without signaling. Utilizing cameras or sensors to monitor lane markings on the road, LDW detects when the vehicle crosses these lines and triggers visual, auditory, or haptic alerts to notify the driver of potential lane departure.

Complaint:
"when i bought it only came with one key fob according to lexus all the nx models come with 1 key fob due to the chip shortage we will get another fob within six months. they have an app to use your cell phone to start - stop the vehicle that does not work properly. my wife and i are [xxx] and use our cell phones very little. my brother lives where they have no cell service, what are we supposed to do if my wife is two hours away with the vehicle and her cell phone dies? this is very poor service from lexus. if the government would make them stop importing the nx vehicles until they have the chip issue worked out it would be a big step in the right direction. what happens when someone is stranded somewhere and can't unlock or start their vehicle because they have no key fob? they do not tell you anything about the key fob until after you pay for the vehicle. how many thousands of customers are they doing this to? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)"

Complaint:
"this is a brand new car and i was driving on the highway on a sunday weekend on 9/24/23 while it was raining outside. all of sudden i started hearing noise from outside as if my windows were open. then yellow triangle showed up on my head up display and on dash screen, it asked me to shift to parking mode. minutes later dash screen shows my driving-side door was opened. there was no shoulder to park at the time while i was driving on the highway, so i stopped on the right hand side of the highway, shifted to parking mode, open the door and closed, and the warning sound and signal finally went away. i think it was the rain drop that has activated the electronic door lock release on a rainy day, during this time, i heard wind noise, wind coming into the car, and warning alarm from car safety system."
