2007 Lexus Es350 at 30,000 miles

You did not give a mileage, so this uses 30,000 — the median reported failure mileage for this model year, which is a rough stand-in for “a typical example of this car”. Put your real reading in the box below for an answer about your car.

Rounds to

At 30,000 miles on this car

At 30,000 miles on a 2007 Lexus Es350, 15 of the failure modes other owners have reported already have their median report at or below your reading, and 2 more fall inside the window where they are usually reported. The heaviest of the ones already due is other speed control problem.

Already past the median 15

Half of all reports of these failures came in at or below where your car is now.

3 more.

You are in the window 2

Your reading falls inside the middle half of reports for these.

Typically later 21

Reported further down the road than where you are.

  • Stalling while driving 30k
  • Other engine problem 39k
  • Master cylinder or brake booster failure 42k
  • Airbag warning light or occupant sensor fault 43k
  • Alternator or charging system failure 52k
  • Other fuel system problem 55k
  • Other visibility problem 58k
  • Headlight failure or clouding 62k
  • Airbag failed to deploy in a crash 63k
  • Oil leak 70k
  • Premature brake pad or rotor wear 70k
  • Loss of power steering 70k

9 more.

Timing unknown 4

Reported, but too few owners gave an odometer reading to place them.

  • Steering rack, gear or tie rod failure 2×
  • Radiator or coolant leak 1×
  • Steering column or shaft failure 1×
  • Tail light, brake light or signal failure 1×

Why the list is generic until you type a number

Every figure below is a comparison against your odometer, so with no reading given the page has to pick one: 30,000 miles, roughly what a 2007 car covers at 12,000 miles a year. A reading 30,000 miles either side of that moves failures between the columns, which is the difference between a useful list and a generic one.

Already inside the reported range

15 failure modes on the 2007 Lexus Es350 have a median reported mileage at or below 30,000: other speed control problem (median 22,500 miles, 97 reports), other powertrain problem (median 17,500 miles, 30 reports), parking brake failure (median 15,000 miles, 14 reports), cruise control failure (median 15,000 miles, 14 reports), loss of braking (median 20,000 miles, 9 reports) and other brake problem (median 20,000 miles, 8 reports).

These are the ones worth mentioning to a mechanic by name at the next service. Being past a median is not being overdue — it means the reports cluster below where you are now, so if the failure was going to be typical, it would already have happened.

The window you are in now

2 further modes are reported in a band that includes 30,000 miles: other electrical problem (19k to 65,000 miles) and other body or interior problem (18k to 72,500 miles). These are the ones to watch on this car over the next few thousand miles.

A window here is the 25th to 75th percentile of reported mileages, so it holds the middle half of the reports and excludes the tails on both sides.

Still ahead of you

21 further modes sit above your reading, the nearest being stalling while driving at a median of 30,000 miles. On a car you intend to keep, these are the ones that decide whether it is worth keeping.

What this list is not

It is a reading of what owners of other 2007 Lexus Es350s reported, and at what odometer reading they reported it. It is not a maintenance schedule, not a diagnosis, and not a prediction about this car: two identical cars with different service histories are not the same car.

Complaints are filed voluntarily, mileages are typed in by owners and cluster on round numbers, and a failure mode with few reports has a wide window even when the median looks precise. Modes with fewer than 8 dated reports are shown without percentiles for that reason.

Where 30,000 miles falls on the curve

The three columns above sort the failure modes one by one. This is the same evidence in aggregate: every dated report on this model year, stacked up in the order the odometer readings arrived. The dashed line marked you is where your car sits. How much of the line is to the left of that mark is how much of this model year's reported trouble is, on the evidence, already behind you.

Share of reports filed by each mileage, with your reading marked
you: 30k

About 49% of the dated reports on this model year had already been filed by 30,000 miles. That is the share of the problems that show up in this record, not of the problems this car will have. A further 3 reports came in above the top of the scale, which is why the line stops short of the top.

  • Line share of reports filed by that mileage
  • Dashed the mileages called out above

A steep early climb means a car whose reports cluster young, which is the pattern of a defect rather than of wear. A line that only gets going past six figures is the opposite. Neither shape says anything about the specific car in your driveway, and a curve built from a few dozen readings can be moved by one owner with a talkative afternoon.

Questions this page answers

What should I expect at 30,000 miles on a 2007 Lexus Es350?

15 of the failure modes owners have reported on the 2007 Lexus Es350 have a median report at or below 30,000 miles, and 2 more fall inside the mileage window where they are usually reported. That is a watch list drawn from other owners, not a prediction about this car.

How to use the three columns. The left column is the list to hand a mechanic before you buy, and to check the service history for if you already own the car. The middle column is what to budget for this year. The right column is not a reprieve — it is a reminder that a used car has a bill schedule, and this is roughly where it falls. All of it is drawn from 529 owner complaints about this exact model year, not from a maintenance manual. How the percentiles are computed.
