Buying a used 2018 Lexus LX570? Check these 2 recalls first
Two recalls apply: passenger airbags that may deactivate, and the Toyota/Lexus fuel pump that can fail and stall the engine. Neither carries a stop-driving or park-outside advisory. NHTSA shows just 4 unverified owner complaints for the year, with no crashes, fires, or injuries; air bags is the most-cited area at 2, followed by single reports under service brakes and seat belts. With a file that small, the recalls are the more meaningful record.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm by VIN that both the passenger airbag and fuel pump recalls were completed.
- Watch the passenger airbag status indicator with someone seated and with the seat empty.
- Check all seat belts for smooth retraction and locking, and confirm no airbag light stays on.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Lexus dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
