2010 Lexus LS460 recalls

Fuel system, gasoline: delivery, hoses, lines/piping, and fittings

NHTSA campaign 14V647000 · reported October 15, 2014 · Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing · 422,509 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2007-2010 Lexus LS vehicles manufactured May 9, 2006, to July 20, 2010, 2006-2011 Lexus GS vehicles manufactured January 6, 2005, to September 10, 2010, and 2006-2011 Lexus IS vehicles manufactured August 30, 2005, to September 10, 2010. Due to anti-corrosion plating remnants, fuel may leak from where the fuel pressure sensor is attached to the fuel delivery pipe.
The risk
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
The fix
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will clean and reseal the fuel pressure sensor mounting area, free of charge. The recall began March 3, 2015. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.

Steering: electric power assist system

NHTSA campaign 10V218000 · reported May 21, 2010 · TOYOTA MOTOR NORTH AMERICA, INC. · 3,800 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2009 and 2010 lexus ls460 and ls600 vehicles manufactured from august 20, 2009 through may 13, 2010. A programming change of the steering control ECU for the variable gear ratio steering (vgrs) system can cause improper activation of the steering system protection logic designed to protect the system when larger than normal steering inputs are applied at a fully turned position.
The risk
Improper activation of the steering system protection logic can cause the steering wheel to become off-centered up to 90 degrees. This may occur after the driver has fully turned the steering wheel in one direction then quickly attempts to turn it back to the center position. Should this occur while driving, the risk of a crash is increased.
The fix
Toyota will notify owners and lexus dealers will replace the steering control ECU free of charge. The safety recall began on july 12, 2010. Owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
