I've just tried the recall checker on the Lexus website and nothing shows up for my ES. But it has just had its first service (10k miles in 6 months) so possible something was done then. I did get a recall notification however about the e-Call system not being activated correctly. The dealer called me twice to encourage me to bring it in!

Hi all, newbie here, I also ordered mine "blind" (as a lease) but having had a CT previously and driven one or two other models I didn't think I'd be disappointed (and wasn't). I did sit in one in the US before committing though! I've also noted discrepancies in the online spec compared to what's on the car, mine is the base model - the configurator is still saying this includes wireless phone charger, rear screen blind and rain-sensing wipers but none of these are on the car. Brought this up with the dealer and got a dismissive reply that these are part of the premium pack (disappointing given the great customer service I've otherwise had) and then contacted Lexus directly with a similar "blah" reply. But minor niggles really as even the base model is pretty well equipped.

Hi all another happy ES owner here. I've had mine just over a month now, I think it may have been one of the first delivered. Only real annoyance is lack of CarPlay, I complained directly to Lexus about this given that is available on the car in the USA but got a "blah blah" reply. In response to the most recent question, mine also came without a handbook but the dealer was happy to send one to me. Have been getting around 51 mpg which is about the same I was getting in my last car, a CT! Any other questions, feel free to ask.
