Lexus LS stuck in transport mode

Transport mode on an LS? That's odd! I had something similar. Does the engine even start? For me, it was a silly issue during initial setup. Have you tried a full diagnostic check? It might just need a simple software refresh.

You mention a 'full diagnostic check'. Where could I get this done, and what specific areas or modules should the diagnostic focus on?

Yep, same symptoms. The dealer should sort it quickly. They'll hook it up to their diagnostic tools and likely perform a software refresh or car configuration. Honestly, that's your best bet – save yourself the headache. It’s likely something simple. Is this still a problem?

You were absolutely correct! The dealership found that the car hadn't been fully configured before delivery. They performed a software refresh, and the transport mode was deactivated. Everything is working perfectly now. The repair was covered under warranty, so no cost.
