Consumers Reports Magazine has issued a “Don’t Buy: Safety Risk” warning for Toyota’s 2010 Lexus GX 460 SUV, due to its poor performance in the turn tests. GX 460 is the latest redesigned SUV of the Lexus line up, and there are more than 5,000 sold in the three months the model has been on sale.

The magazine uncovered the problem during the routine tests, and is urging car shoppers not to buy the GX 460 until Toyota comes up with a fix. Toyota on the other hand said that it is concerned about the tests, and will duplicate the consumer reports test to determine if the appropriate steps need to be taken.

"Consumer Reports believes that, in real-world driving, that situation could lead to a rollover accident which could cause serious injury or death," the magazine said in a statement. Click here to see the video of the test.

Magazine has advised current owners of the vehicle to approach the exit ramps with caution, and to call Toyota to demand a fix for the problem.
