3 recalls across 1 model year
The Lexus HS 250H has 3 recalls, all affecting the 2010 model year, with the most serious being a brake pressure accumulator that can develop a fatigue crack, allowing nitrogen gas to leak into the brake fluid, lengthening the pedal stroke and reducing hydraulic pressure so that stopping distances increase. The fuel system on 2010 models can allow fuel to spill beyond safe limits following a rear-end collision, raising the risk of a post-crash fire. There is also a powertrain concern on 2010 vehicles where a holding plate inside the hybrid transaxle can wear and shift out of position, eventually contacting the electric motor coil and causing a short circuit.
