Toyota is recalling about 11,000 late model Lexus crossover SUVs for a head restraint issue.
In certain Lexus SUVs, the driver and front passenger seat head restraints may be removed without pressing the release button, Toyota said in a voluntary recall notice Wednesday. This defect – possibly resulting in the vehicle not meeting federal safety standards – may increase the risk of injury to an occupant in the event of a rear-end crash if a head restraint is removed and not replaced, the automaker said.
Customers will be notified about the issue by late August 2024 and Lexus dealers will replace the head restraints at no cost to customers, Toyota said.
Which Lexus vehicles are affected by the head restraint recall?
- 2024-2025 Lexus NX
- 2024 Lexus RX
