Lexus UX Navigation Failure

Hey, I'm having trouble with my 2021 Lexus UX hybrid. I'm getting a weird error, electrical issues, and the navigation isn't working. The car says it might be a control unit programming problem. It's got 144297 km on it. Anyone else seen this?

That's interesting. I had something similar happen with my 2018 Volvo XC60 a while back. Sounds almost exactly like what I went through. Mine also pointed to a corrupted control unit program. Have you tried any recalibration through the car's system, or just read the codes?

Thanks, I've only pulled the error codes so far. Can you tell me more about the recalibration you tried with your Volvo? Any specific steps or tools that might help?

Sure. The exact tools might be different between Volvo and Lexus, but the idea is the same. I tried a full system reset through the Volvo's computer, then tried to reinstall the software. That didn't work because the corrupted program kept messing things up. I had to take it to the shop to get the control unit completely redone. Based on what you're seeing, I'd suggest talking to a Lexus tech.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to book an appointment with Lexus. They quoted 240€. Your Volvo experience really helps. Thanks again.
