Thanks for the advice. I am generating a checklist and plus will bring the car manual and go through each function before taking delivery. They are also taking the car to a Lexus dealership. I asked the dealer to go thru all the functionality with a fine tooth comb and test the car. I will also take the car to my own Lexus dealer for final check.

Glad to hear that you were fine, and hope the car is repaired to your satisfication.

If you don't mind my asking, how will such extensive repairs affect your current parts warranty coverage? I saw there was a claim that all work was covered under warranty by the shop/insurance, but this doesn't particularly cover parts failure/malfunction.
Glad to hear that you were fine, and hope the car is repaired to your satisfication.

My car is fully loaded and it was valued here in Phx area at $35K. Most used car like mine goes for $35K in a car dealer and of course you have to pay tax (8%) and hence the value going to $39K.

Update or Lack there off
No real update. The car was finally taken to a Lexus dealer yesterday afternoon, not to a place where I expected. The body shop took it to the dealer where I bought the car; the shop told me the one that is near them would not get around to it for another couple of days so they took it else where. This about 2.5 weeks behind schedule but not that bad. I talked to the dealer and told them to do a "PDI" as if the car is brand new. They told me they will and threat as if they where selling the car to me new and will do detail functionality check. Barring any problems in the electronics communications, I should see the car sometime this week for pre-delivery inspection. I hope to get the car no later the end of next week.
