2020: Lexus recalls

Last update 16. 02. 2024

Three recalls for four Lexus models in 2020

In 2020, Lexus announced three recalls for four models through the EU Rapex system.

Several Lexus 2013-2019 models may have a problem with the low-pressure fuel pump. The impeller surface may deform, causing the fuel pump to become inoperative and the engine to stall.

With the RX 350 and RX 450h models manufactured between May 2015 to February 2018, moisture can enter the washer jets’ heating element. This can result in a short circuit and consequent overheating, increasing the risk of the vehicle catching fire.

All the recalls sorted by models are listed in the tables below.

Tip: Check the vehicle’s history by VIN
