2022 LC ragtop: Walked into my garage from outside this afternoon and it "appeared" that car was lower on left side (driver's). Measured distance from floor to bottom of rear wheel well using center of wheel as reference point. Right side: approx 29 7/8" Left side:29 1/8"-maybe 29 3/16". Car is empty. Asked my brother to measure his...also a 2022 convertible. Both sides of his are virtually identical in height.
Thus......What's going on with mine ? I understand manufacturing tolerances but if I notice the difference standing behind the car I do not think that is acceptable. (Neither vehicle has more than 8K mils at most)

An y thoughts, explanations, input, opinions ?? Thanks for any feedback.

Known as Lexus Lean If you do a site search you'll find all sorts of folks in different Lexus vehicles, IS, LS, GX and etc. reporting this same thing. Mine sits at 30" on the right side and 29˝" on the left. My ISF was also affected

And I "assume" Lexus says it's a "normal characteristic" of the vehicle ?

i assume it's something to do with the shocks not rebounding equally left/right. mpgazelle, 3.4" does sound like a lot though.
i'll give mine a measure later.

What's the measurement with a 200# weight in the driver's seat?

mpgazelle

The driver's/left side is low thus 200# would only increase the difference....if at all.

Did you leave a child in the backseat ? There’s a warning for that on our app

mpgazelle

No kids.....maybe 4 or 5 cases of Blue Moon....Went for a short drive today......remeasured.....virtually same measurements...actually right side is "slightly" higher now...Roughly 3/4" difference.....

Been rolling with Lexus since 1989…..Have yet to experience this issue... I admit that I am bout as ocd as the next guy….But if I had a noticeable lean in my car, it would bother the hell out of me…I would have to get it fixed...
