4/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
The 2024 Lexus RX 350 has two recalls, both affecting occupant restraints: front head restraints that can move or detach in a crash, and a second-row center seatbelt that can break under crash loads and fail to hold the occupant.
The head restraint defect affects the front seats, where the restraints were not manufactured to the correct specification and can shift position or pull free entirely during a collision, reducing protection against whiplash and head injury. The seatbelt concern involves the second-row center position, where the belt webbing or hardware may have been damaged during production, leaving it vulnerable to snapping in a crash rather than holding the passenger in place.
