LEXUS RC 350 Recalls

The Lexus RC 350 has 1 recall affecting the 2016 model year, where a dealer-installed block heater with a faulty power cord can develop an internal short circuit and start a fire, raising the risk of injury and property damage. The defect involves the block heater's wiring making unintended contact with itself, which allows current to arc and ignite surrounding material. Because block heaters are typically used while the vehicle is parked and plugged in overnight, a fire can develop without the owner present.
