The 2009 Lexus LX570 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a floor mat that can trap the accelerator pedal wide open, making the vehicle very difficult to slow or stop and raising the risk of a crash.
Both remaining recalls involve airbags. In one, the driver or front passenger airbag may be the wrong unit for this vehicle and may not deploy correctly in a crash. In the other, a wire harness connected to the seatbelt tension sensor can break over time and shut off the front passenger airbag, knee airbag, and passenger seat-mounted side airbag, leaving those occupants without that protection in a collision.
