LEXUS LS 430 Recalls

The Lexus LS 430 has 2 recalls, both affecting the 2004 model year, with the more serious being a fuel pump impeller that can warp from alcohol content in fuel, seize against the pump housing, and stall the engine without warning. The second recall covers the automatic transmission, where rapid accelerator inputs can stress a collar inside the planetary gear assembly beyond its design limits, breaking off a small metal fragment. That debris can circulate inside the transmission and cause shifting problems or internal damage.
