What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the low-pressure fuel pump could fail. If this happens, the engine may run rough or may not start and the check engine light may turn on. This could also result in a sudden loss of engine power while driving.

Why it matters

A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Lexus will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the fuel pump.

Transport Canada recall 2018091

14 February 2018

Transport Canada lists: GS F 2015–2018 · LC 500 2018 · RC F 2016–2018

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a 5.0L V8 gasoline engine, a fatigue crack could develop on the cover of the high pressure fuel pump. If the vehicle is operated with this condition, the crack could expand and allow fuel to leak. Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the high pressure fuel pumps with improved ones.
