  1. Subject: Special Service Campaign (Safety Recall) 9LA

    Certain 2006 – 2007 GS, 2006 – 2008 IS and 2007 – 2008 LS vehicles

    Fuel Delivery Pipe Replacement

    Dear Dealer Principal:

    Lexus will initiate a Special Service Campaign (SSC) on certain 2006 through 2007 GS 300/350, 2006 through 2008 model year IS 250/350, and 2007 through 2008 LS 460/LS 460L vehicles. The involved vehicles are equipped with aluminum fuel delivery pipes (fuel rails). Lexus has determined that ethanol fuels with low moisture content will corrode the internal surface of the fuel rails. As this condition progresses, the engine malfunction indicator light (MIL) may illuminate. Over time, the corrosion will create a pinhole resulting in fuel leakage.

    The following information is provided to advise you and your staff of the owner notification phase of the campaign and your degree of involvement. Additional information may be found in the attached Lexus Q&A and customer notification letter.

    Owner Notification Date

    Lexus will begin sending the Special Service Campaign notification in late January 2009 via first class mail.

    GS 300/350, GS 430 and GS 450h vehicles. The slide pin in the rear brake calipers may not operate smoothly on

    GS 300/350, GS 430, GS 450h and RX 400h vehicles. Customers may experience a noticeable gradual increase in the steering effort necessary at low speeds when turning the steering wheel to the complete left or right position. This condition may be most perceptible when parking the vehicle.

  2. Thank you all so much for your help and insights.

    One more question though; since my basic warranty (5 yr / 50,000 miles) just ran out as my car was initially delivered in Dec of 2003; would this backup camera repair still be covered under some other type of warranty?

    Also, aren't TSBs or TSIBs just service bulletins that the owner would usually pay for outside of warranty? They are not like recalls, right?

    TIA :)

    TSIB is for warranty works for all dealership. no it's not a recall, it's a update camera.

  3. Call any Lexus dealer and ask for part#51909-35011, and 90119-12361. For 90119-12361, you will need 6 of them. it's the bolts. When you put these parts on. you can't put the center bumper cover back on. because it will be in the way. and with these part, you can not tow anything heavier then 500 lbs. if you really want to tow something heavy, then you have get the Lexus accessories hitch assembly.
