Each campaign in detail

Recall: poorly soldered front camera housings
Manufacturer recall
French campaign 24SD-065 (around 1,868 cars): on part of the 2022-2023 production, including RX 450h+ and 500h, the front camera housings may have been poorly soldered; water can get in over time and cause a short circuit. The network checks the soldering and replaces the camera and its housing if necessary. Check the serial number with a Lexus dealership.
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).
