Each campaign in detail

  1. Recall: brake booster pump (2019)

    Manufacturer recall

    Recall 19V-544 (US campaign): the brake booster pump can fail, which disables stability control and removes brake assistance. It concerns 2019 model year LS 500h cars; dealerships inspect and replace the pump if necessary, free of charge. Our sources do not establish whether this applies to cars sold in France: have Lexus check the serial number.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).

It targets 2018-2020 LS 500h cars with the Executive pack; inspection and repair are free at a dealership.
