Lexus Gx460 Recalls

The Lexus GX460 has 10 recalls covering 2010 through 2019 model years, with the most serious recent issue being a fuel pump failure on 2018-2019 models where the pump can stop delivering fuel, stalling the engine while driving and raising the risk of a crash. A separate fuel pump recall covers 2014-2015 models with the same consequence: the pump can fail, the engine stalls, and the vehicle loses power unexpectedly in traffic.

The passenger-side airbag inflator is the subject of multiple recalls spanning 2010 through 2017 model years, all involving Takata inflators. On 2010-2017 models, the inflator can rupture or explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, with the risk of serious injury or death to the front passenger. These recalls were phased across several campaigns, with some specifically targeting vehicles registered in high-humidity states and territories where the risk is elevated. A separate, lower-severity filing covers a single 2017 model year vehicle where the inflator may have been assembled without ignition booster tablets, meaning the airbag might not deploy properly in a crash.

The 2018 model year has a compliance issue with an incorrect load-carrying capacity label, which can lead an owner to overload the vehicle without realizing it.

Going back to the earliest production covered here, 2010 models have a recall for the electronic stability control system. Under hard cornering at speed, the system can fail to intervene correctly, allowing the vehicle to slide sideways and potentially roll over.
