Toyota RAV4 and Lexus NX may have loose brake bolts
high How serious is it? About this label
This is a serious problem because weaker brakes or a wheel coming off can cause a crash; the notice does not say to stop driving, but have it inspected right away and go straight to the dealer if the brake pedal feels soft or you hear noise from a wheel.
What's wrong, in plain English
On some 2024 RAV4 and 2025 Lexus NX vehicles, bolts holding the front brake caliper and the wheel hub bearing may not be tight enough. Loose bolts can rub against and damage the rubber hose that carries brake fluid to the caliper, or in the worst case let a wheel come off the vehicle. A leaking brake hose means weaker brakes and a longer distance to stop. A dealer will check and tighten the bolts and replace anything damaged, at no cost.
