2025 Lexus ES350

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 ES350.

Transmission Automatic (S8)

The 2025 Lexus ES350 is the latest iteration of Lexus's luxury sedan, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and returning an EPA-rated 22 city / 32 highway / 25 combined mpg. The model year has so far attracted only four total owner complaints and a single recall, with the only meaningful cluster of issues concentrated in the service brakes, back-over prevention, and forward collision avoidance systems. Set against the model's documented complaint history from 2007 through 2018—a span that runs from a 2007 peak of 664 complaints down to a 2018 low of just five—the 2025's tally of four edges below even that prior floor, marking one of the ES350's least complaint-laden model years across nearly two decades of records.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The federal record shows a steep decline in complaints from a peak of 664 in 2007 to just 5 by 2018, while recalls fell from 5 per year (2007‑2012) to 1‑2 in the later years, and investigations disappeared after 2012. Service‑brake, back‑over prevention, forward‑collision avoidance, electrical system, fuel/propulsion system, and structural issues each accounted for a single complaint in the most recent data, indicating no dominant problem area. Crash‑related complaints are low (2) and fire complaints even lower (1), mirroring the overall reduction in issue frequency across the generation. Assuming the downward trend continues, the 2025 Lexus ES350 sits at the tail end of a long‑term improvement arc, suggesting a comparatively clean year. **Takeaway:** Based on the historic decline in complaints and recalls, 2025 appears to be a strong year to purchase a used ES350.
