Anonymous A., SC (2015 Lexus NX 200t 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Both my wife and I drive the car but the Bluetooth always defaults to her phone even though I am the initial user.

"Driver door would not always lock, and if locked, would not always unlock with the keyless mechanism. Only the manual lock inside the door would work. It was noticed mostly if the car sat in the rain. The intermittent nature made it hard to replicate by the mechanics, so I had to deal with it a long time before they could diagnose and repair. We had a very rainy spring which made the problem occur frequently enough that they could determine the problem was the door lock actuator and replace it."
