I hate the OEM wipers and I hate the ones on my Lexus, too. Not sure if it is a Toyota thing or what. They always leave streaks and always have. I even had the dealer install them to be sure if wasn’t just me. My BMW had good wipers. Maybe those are Bosch? I am surprised anyone can tolerate the...

My 2018 TRD Pro’s driver’s side door does not always unlock when I use the FOB. Sometimes it does work fine, though. When it fails to unlock I can always (so far anyway) unlock it by locking all the doors and then hitting unlock again but unlock will not work no matter how many times I try...
