2018 Lexus Lc500 Recalls & Complaints

The 2018 Lexus LC500 has 3 recalls, all involving the fuel system: a cracked high-pressure fuel pump cover can leak fuel and raise the risk of a fire, while a separate fuel pump failure can stall the engine while driving.

The fire risk affects vehicles with the 5.0L V8 engine, where a fatigue crack in the fuel pump cover can allow fuel to escape near potential ignition sources. The engine stall concern stems from a fuel pump that can fail entirely, cutting power delivery and leaving the driver without propulsion in traffic. Prior repair attempts for the stall issue did not fully resolve it, which is why it appears across more than one recall campaign.
