2007 Lexus Is 250

The 2007 Lexus IS 250 has 3 recalls, all involving the front passenger airbag inflator, which can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, causing serious injury or death.

All three recalls address the same defect in the passenger-side frontal airbag inflator. When the airbag deploys, the inflator can explode rather than inflate the bag cleanly, scattering sharp metal shards toward anyone seated in the front passenger seat or elsewhere in the cabin. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why multiple recall campaigns were filed over time covering overlapping model years and geographic regions. Vehicles that were originally sold or have ever been registered in high-humidity states and territories, including Florida, Hawaii, Texas, and others, are specifically called out in certain filings, as moisture exposure increases the likelihood of inflator rupture.
