Chart is based on 331 vehicles in TrueDelta's reliability survey.
These are the problems owners most commonly reported on TrueDelta's Car Reliability Survey. For many models not all entries have been coded yet, so focus on the relative numbers rather than the absolute numbers. Usually when people say "they all have this problem," the problem in question actually affects between 10 percent and 20 percent of all cars. We aren't counting wear items like brake pads and rotors that truly do require periodic replacement on all cars.

TrueDelta Reviews the Materials And Workmanship of the 2020 Lexus ES

2020 Lexus ES Materials And Workmanship: Neutral
YearComment
2019 In the interior materials category, Mazda scores an upset. The Mazda6 Signature's seats are surfaced in nappa leather rather than a synthetic material. Its interior panels are trimmed with synthetic suede and real wood. Aside from the latter, these panels are extensively soft to the touch. You'll come into contact with much more hard plastic inside the Lexus and in the F Sport the seats are surfaced with a high-quality synthetic leather (i.e. vinyl). If you want real leather and wood trim inside the ES, you must opt for the luxury model rather than the sport model. Not that the ES F Sport seems cheap inside. it certainly doesn't. But the Mazda6 is exceedingly well-trimmed for a car with a price in the mid-30s. full 2019 Lexus ES review
