Perhaps it's occuring in your area, only? In any case, it helps to include a source before making a potentially misleading generalized statement about a car's weakness, especially if you're not in the trenches.

JJ posted he has seen one at his dealership, that's Alabama and more importantly there seems a kit being worked on so it is hardly area specific. After pure posted this thread we have had 3 post on having this very issue in an oil leak thread started on ES350 forum.

Sorry jj, I confused you with the mentioned dealers by owners in the oil leak thread on ES forum.
