2010 Lexus Is F Recalls & Complaints

The 2010 Lexus IS F has 4 recalls, all involving the front passenger airbag inflator, which can rupture or explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, potentially causing serious injury or death.

All four recalls address the same defect in the Takata airbag inflator on the passenger side. These recalls apply to vehicles originally sold or registered in high-humidity states and territories including Alabama, California, Florida, Hawaii, Texas, and others, where moisture accelerates the degradation of the inflator propellant over time. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the issue, which is why multiple recall campaigns exist for the same component. If this vehicle has spent time in any of the listed regions, confirming whether the inflator has been replaced under one of these campaigns is worth checking by VIN.
