Usually any uncontrolled oscillation like bouncing is caused by a bad shock absorber (or a broken one). Have them look for broken mount / perch or whatever they may call it. Could also be a broken shock rod.

revise primero que la llave este en buenas condiciones, pruebe con una de las copias, segun lei el problema esta en el cilindro de la llave, con la tapa de combustible mala lo unico que hace es encender la luz de check pero no impide funcionamiento eso es falso , suerte !!!!

Humming noise from engine when driving lexus

Your wheels each have rotor speed sensors...
2006 LEXUS GX470 4 7L V8 ABS Wheel Speed Sensor RockAuto

These are easily bent or misaligned... and can be
put into a position of INTERFERENCE with the
(particularly ... in YOUR case "RIGHT FRONT")
ROTOR...

These parts ARE NOT CHEAP... and WILL
ADVERSELY impact the operation of BOTH
TRACTION CONTROL & ABS (anti-lock brakes)...

It is a WORK ERROR... while your BRAKES
were being "inspected" ... your
rookie dealer "mechanic" most likely did
something...

ROAD-HAZARDS "can" break these parts...
but reasoning with your fully functioning
brain... (OCCAM'S Razor)
Occam razor Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

You should NEVER HAVE LEFT... without
having a SERVICE PERSON making a note
of your ABS & TRC lights...

You do have rights... and government
licensing boards... In the unlikely event
your "dealer" FAILS to recognize their
obvious WORK ERROR...

OCCAMS razor:
When you hear the thunder of hoof
beats... Think HORSES... (not Zebras)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra_(medicine)

I have had many BAD experiences with
DEALERS... (& I trust my lying eyes)...

I'm just saying (in my opinion)... Get back to that
"DEALER"... pronto...!!

Had some body work done on my Lexus GX470 and when I got it back it was riding on the frame. Took it to the dealer and they replaced the height sensors. 24 miles later, the BRAKE, ABS, Both VSC lights...

sounds like you need a couple more sensors. Abs light/brake may be on due to abs wheel sensor. VSC would be a steering angle sensor. skid control has its own sensor. I assume your accident also involved the wheel or wheels (some type of impact or hard jarring). The sensors arent cheap and they are easy to fix, they need to step up and do the right thing

HI ...MY LEXUS DEALER CHECKED MY BRAKES AND TOLD ME I HAD 6 AND 7 ON MY BRAKE WEAR INDICATOR...CAN THIS BE TRUE I HAVE A 2007 GX 470 WITH 37000 MILES ON IT....IM NOT COMPLAINING ..BUT DINT KNOW HOW THIS...

brake wear depends on driveing condition amount of times you stop and go if you drive alot of in town driveing verses interstate driveing type of brake pads you have on it also depends dealer prices are always more expensive theres many brake shops that guarantee there work for half the price of dealers happy holidays hope this helps

The suspension system on my 2006 GX470 is acting up. If the car sits idle for a period of time, when you take off, the ride is extremelty bumping in the comfort setting - by bumpy - mean bouncing up and...

you have a failed height control sensor. there are two on your vehicle in the rear. they need to be removed and checked for being frozen and or corroded inside.
75% of the time it is the left rear(driver side). on an 03 it will only be covered if you have an extended warranty.
