What are the defects?
The high pressure fuel pumps could be damaged under specific operating conditions. This damage can lead to abnormal noise and vibration and, over time, can cause the pumps to develop a fatigue crack.
What are the hazards?
If the vehicle is operated continuously under these conditions, the crack could expand and fuel may leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a vehicle fire.
What should consumers do?
A recall notification will be sent to the owner advising of this recall and requesting the vehicle be presented to their preferred Lexus Dealer.
