2016 LEXUS NX

Filed Oct 19, 2026


Vehicle is a 2016 Lexus NX 200t F Sport. While driving, the vehicle suffered a sudden and dangerous loss of engine power and stalled in active traffic, matching the symptoms of the major Denso low-pressure fuel pump recalls (NHTSA Campaign 20V-682). The vehicle was repaired at an authorized Lexus dealership in the US at an out-of-pocket cost of $1,700. The manufacturer refuses to acknowledge the safety defect because the vehicle's VIN was originally coded for the Canadian market, despite the…

While driving and approaching a red light, my entire breaking system failed. No warning lights appeared, no warning of breaks going bad. Pedal went straight to the floor. Eventually pulled over to the side and had vehicle towed to Lexus. They found the Master brake cylinder to be bad. My vehicle only has 50k miles on it. Only a few more miles and I would have been on the highway going 60 with children in the vehicle! Why would a system fail at 50k miles!!!

While I was driving on the highway in cruise control, my car suddenly broke the cruise setting, slowed down, and the check engine light turned on. I pulled over and the car would not accelerate to over about 15-20 mph. I made it to an auto center, where they informed me that the reader said there was an issue with one of the fuel pumps. I am aware that there is a recall on fuel pumps in this model of vehicle and I believe that I experienced this defect.

My 2016 Lexus NX200t with approximately 157,000 miles experienced sudden engine stalling, loss of acceleration, and the check engine light illuminated while driving.

Hello, I own a 2015 Lexus NX200T. On 9/13/2025 I was pulling into a spot to park, going slow at maybe 4-5 mph, my vehicle suddenly violently accelerates on its own.

I was in seconds of killing them and pinning them between the vehicle that was in front of me. I did everything in my power to keep hitting the breaks as hard as I could until it stopped within inches of the two pedestrians.…
