i highly doubt that. you can try, but to me, i would rather choose to ignore them. not my ideal solution, but given how much potential hassle i have to go through, not worth my time

I am starting to stop driving my car like a test driver looking for any subtle issue. It doesnt bother me at all. I was just wondering how many other members have them on their cars

I agree. I try not to search for problems, because if I look long enough I will always find them. It doesn't affect the value, performance or enjoyability of my car, so I'm certainly not going to worry about it. For me, this issue is an FYI.

I think that its not abnormal to be picky when you drop 50k on a car.

you realize that when you mass produce something, nothing is perfect?

Is that why Lexus dropped the “The Relentless Pursuit of Perfection” slogan...so the could stop pursuing it?

I also got that bubbles on the front windshield of my 09 GS. It is currently with Germain Lexus of Easton in Columbus waiting for the windshield to be replace under warranty. I still don't understand how it happen to the car that less than 3 years old and under 32K miles. My 03 Honda Accord with over 145K miles doesn't have any of this issue.
