Buying a used 2018 Lexus RX350L? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2018 Lexus RX350L has 2 recalls in this group, both concerning fuel-pump failure that may stall the engine. Confirming each campaign's status is more informative than relying on a general maintenance history. Its 25 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, with 6 each in service brakes and unknown or other, plus 3 each in engine and structure. The record lists 3 crashes, 0 fires and 2 injuries. Brake, engine and structural concerns warrant inspection alongside recall paperwork.
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.
- Verify completion of both fuel-pump recalls by VIN.
- Ask about stalling and obtain engine diagnostic records.
- Have brakes and reported structural concerns inspected.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Lexus dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
