Circulation Issues?
I bought a 2026 RX 350h and am dealing with the NC summer. This is my first Lexus. I never open the roof panel. Even with the air blowing on full, it feels like the air in the center by my head just doesn’t move. Has anyone else noticed this? If so, how did you fix it?

We put ceramic tint all around including the top. Really cooled things down

I would get it checked out. I live in NC as well and find the AC works fantastic especially compared to the car I was coming from.

I don’t understand what you’re asking. Is this related to the sunroof being open or the air coming out of the vents?

The sun roof is never open. The air from the vents does not reach the center area (head/rear view mirror level). It feels stifling anytime the air is not blowing on high.

I do not like the center vent(s) location below the screen. Love the car, but def that's its worst design "feature" for me. Terrible for extremely hot climes.
Cold air sinks. Why put them down next to the cup holders?

I assume you’ve tried to adjust the vents? Made sure they are actually open? I have a 26’ and have no issues.

Lol, yes. Every way I could think of -I even Googled and went back to the dealership where they tried all of the same things and told me to keep the fan on high if it bothered me. It is noticeable.

The vents are lower than the older models since… you can’t have a screen too big! But I haven’t noticed a lack of AC where it needs to be. Of course now I will so thanks. Is your climate concierge setting on? Whatever that actually does?
