I have a Lexus rcf 2017. There’s a safety recall for a low pressure fuel pump. This recall has come out years later after the car has been bought. I am the 3rd owner. I bought the car in 2026. I bought the car with aftermarket work done on it, but I didn’t think there would be any recalls. The LPFP has wires hooked up to another fuel pump in the trunk for handling performance. With that said, Lexus didn’t want to do the recall. I asked all 3 numbers I called if I can just be given the part, and…
2022 LEXUS RC
Filed Jul 14, 2026
On March 26, 2026 my vehicle was towed to dealership and diagnosed with a bad fuel pump. On April 8 it was recalled for this pump. It has been sitting at the dealership since then, almost 4 months, with Lexus claiming they do not know when they can fix it due to the recall. This complaint is because the vehicle is not being repaired in a timely manner and I do not have use or possession of it.

The brake pads installed by Lexus squeak as if they need to be replaced. According to the Lexus dealer there is a service bulletin, and the fix is to replace the bad pads. I was told the brakes are fine and that the squeaking doesn't mean anything.
