The 2006 Lexus GS 300 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a fuel line that can crack and leak, creating a fire risk if fuel contacts an ignition source.
On the safety equipment side, two recalls cover occupant restraints and airbags. The front seatbelt retractor can get stuck in its locked position, preventing the belt from releasing after an emergency tensioning event. The side airbags may not fully inflate in a crash, leaving occupants with less cushioning than the system is designed to provide.
