The 2015 Lexus GX460 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a passenger-side airbag inflator that can explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The airbag inflator concern covers certain vehicles, with one filing specifically targeting those sold or registered in high-humidity states and territories, where the risk is considered elevated. Prior repair attempts may not have fully resolved the issue for all affected vehicles, which is why multiple campaigns address the same defect. There is also a fuel system recall: the fuel pump can fail while the vehicle is in motion, cutting power to the engine and causing a stall that raises the risk of a crash.
