The Brief

    • Toyota is recalling over 9,000 Lexus vehicles due to a fuel pump defect that could cause stalling.
    • The issue involves certain RC, GS, and IS models with a faulty impeller.
    • Dealers will replace the fuel pump free of charge.

Toyota announced a recall for more than 9,000 Lexus vehicles over a possible fuel pump failure, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Dig deeper:

The recall involves the 2015-2022 Lexus RC, the 2016-2020 Lexus GS and the 2022 Lexus IS. 

The impacted vehicles are fitted with a low-pressure fuel pump located inside the fuel tank. This pump uses an impeller made from a particular type of resin. Under certain conditions—such as high fuel temperatures and exposure to higher concentrations of aromatic fuel components—the impeller may swell.

If this occurs, the impeller can interfere with surrounding parts, potentially causing the fuel pump to fail.

What they're saying:

"An inoperative fuel pump under these conditions may result in illumination of check engine and other warnings, engine no start, and/or vehicle stall. If a vehicle stall occurs while driving at higher speeds, there is an increased risk of a crash," the report said. 

What you can do:

All affected vehicle owners will be notified and instructed to bring their vehicle to an authorized Lexus dealership. Dealers will replace the fuel pump assembly with an updated component at no cost.

Owner notifications for affected vehicles are expected to be completed by June 8, 2026.
