Known GX550 issues in process on my GX550 OT+

[BCT1]

Picked up my OT+ today. While the salesman was explaining the infotainment, and features, I laid the key FOB on the most convenient location…the wireless phone charger. He immediately said, “don't place the FOB there, it will drain the FOB battery “ Not sure how they determined this, but he was confident it would kill the battery.

Interesting. I just went in for my 5K and Sewell said Lexus is testing various fixes and they would let me know once it was confirmed. Once they get my new brakes and passenger seat massage part I'll bring this back up about others getting the hood fixed. They definitely acknowledged it as a known issue, along with the brakes and passenger massage if that helps anyone else.

After the 3rd battery died in my fob, they mentioned the wireless charging area would cause the battery to discharge quick. Haven’t had an issue since. I had always put the fob there…doh!
