After Isuzu trucks, here’s another Safety Recall. But this time, it’s for Lexus vehicles. So if you own one, check out immediately which units are being recalled.  

Toyota Motor Sales,USA, Inc., along with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announces a Safety Recall which involves around 214,500 Lexus vehicles sold in the United States.

“On certain 2006 through 2008 model year GS300/350, IS250/350, and LS460/460L vehicles, Lexus has determined that some ethanol fuels with a low moisture content may corrode the internal surface of the fuel delivery pipes. If this condition occurs, the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) in the combination meter may illuminate. Over time, the corrosion may create a pinhole in the fuel delivery pipes resulting in fuel leakage.

Lexus dealers will replace the fuel delivery pipes with newly designed components. No other Lexus or Toyota vehicles are involved.”

Owners of the vehicles involved will receive a Safety Recall notification through first-class mail starting late January. Once they received the notified, Lexus Owners should contact their local dealers immediately for free diagnosis and repair.

Should there be questions and concerns, Lexus owners should contact the Lexus Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-255-3987.
