LEXUS GS Recalls

The Lexus GS has 3 recalls covering 2006-2009 model years, with the most serious being fuel leaks on 2006-2007 models where a loosening fuel pressure sensor on the engine delivery pipe can allow gasoline to escape near potential ignition sources and start a fire. The fuel leak risk extends to 2006 models through a second issue: stress concentrations in two engine compartment fuel pipes can develop cracks over time, particularly when corrosive agents are present in the fuel, also creating a fire risk. Both fuel-related concerns share the same real-world consequence, and 2006 owners face exposure to either. The remaining recall affects 2006 models only and involves the front seatbelt retractors for both driver and passenger. If the emergency locking system activates and locks the retractor, it may not release, leaving the occupant unable to properly fasten the belt and raising the risk of injury in a crash.
