What recalls does the Lexus NX have?

  March 18, 2026 · 144,200 vehicles · Rearview Camera

  The rearview camera image may not display when the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."

  Risk: A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

  Fix: Dealers will update the rearview camera software or replace the rearview camera, as necessary, free of charge.

  Fix: Dealers will update the parking assist software, free of charge.

• 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid Seat Belt Webbing Recall (25V059)
  February 6, 2025 · 40,922 vehicles · Seat Belts

  The second-row center seat belt webbing may be damaged. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

  Risk: A damaged seat belt may not adequately restrain an occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

  Fix: Dealers will inspect the seat belt webbing and replace the seat belt assembly if necessary, free of charge.

• 2023 Toyota Corolla Steering Column Recall (25V040) Repeat recall
  January 29, 2025 · 1,716 vehicles · Steering

  An electrical connection inside the steering column's spiral cable assembly may be insufficiently welded, causing the connection to separate and deactivate the driver's air bag. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

  Risk: A deactivated driver's air bag will not deploy as intended, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

  Fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the spiral cable assembly as necessary, free of charge.

• 2024 Toyota RAV4 Wheel Hub Recall (24V911)
  December 5, 2024 · 70 vehicles · Suspension, Wheels and Tires

  Some of the bolts that secure the front brake caliper and the wheel hub bearing may be loose, which can result in a damaged caliper brake hose or possible wheel detachment.

  Risk: A damaged brake line can cause a brake fluid leak, reducing brake performance and increasing the distance required to stop the vehicle. Wheel detachment can result in a loss of vehicle control. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.

  Fix: Dealers will inspect and tighten the front brake caliper mounting bracket and hub bearing bolts, as necessary, free of charge.

How do I check my NX for open recalls?

Enter your 17-character VIN at NHTSA’s recall lookup. The lookup lists every open safety recall on that specific vehicle, so you will see which of the 6 Lexus NX campaigns above apply to you. You can also ask any authorized Lexus dealer to run the VIN. The VIN is on your registration card, your insurance card, and a plate at the lower driver-side corner of the windshield. Brand-new recalls can take a few days to show up, so check again if you received a letter.

What are NX owners reporting?

Owner complaints filed with NHTSA since 2020, by model year. Complaints are unverified owner reports, but the components that come up most often show where owners are having trouble.

Excerpts from owner complaints (unverified):

The transmission (Torque Converter) is shuddering at a certain RPM range when it is in 3rd gear (in between 1000-2000 RPM) in my case. (Roughly 15-25 mph) This could lead to an uneven acceleration and cause an accident. Especially in a bad traction situation ex)snow, rain, uneven surface and etc.

2022 LEXUS NX owner, Unknown Or Other, NHTSA complaint 11688831

On two occasions the car has locked us out. The auxiliary battery fails which does not allow the electric door locks to operate. It’s necessary to follow a manual procedure to unlock the driver door so the hood can be opened and the auxiliary battery can be charged and the car jump started.

2022 LEXUS NX owner, Electrical System, NHTSA complaint 11495096

Two year old 22500 miles. Driving down the highway doing around 75 and my sunroof blew up. Just exploded. Nothing hit it, temperature was around 70 degrees. Was about 10 miles into my morning commute. Nothing could have caused this. No impacts, no odd temperature fluctuations. Just a glass failure.

2023 LEXUS NX owner, Unknown Or Other, NHTSA complaint 11686223

Can a recall make your NX a lemon in California?

Owners of a Lexus NX often ask whether these recalls mean their vehicle qualifies under California's lemon law. Not by themselves. The question is whether a covered defect keeps coming back, or keeps the vehicle at the dealer, after a reasonable number of repair attempts (Civ. Code 1793.2(d)).

2 of the 6 recalls listed here follow an earlier campaign on the same component, which can mean a first fix did not work. Most are single-repair campaigns, but repeat visits for any covered defect still count.

Within the first 18 months or 18,000 miles, California presumes the manufacturer had enough chances if the same defect was repaired two or more times when it is likely to cause death or serious injury, four or more times for any covered defect, or the vehicle was out of service more than 30 days in total (Civ. Code 1793.22(b)). Written notice to the manufacturer is required in some cases, and owners outside that window can still have a claim. An owner who prevails can recover reasonable attorney fees and costs from the manufacturer (Civ. Code 1794(d)). You pay nothing, win or lose. We are paid only if you win, and the manufacturer pays our fees, including in settlements. If a case is lost, our firm covers the costs.

What to keep: every repair order, the recall owner letters, your purchase or lease contract, and a log of dates, mileage and symptoms. Make sure every visit is written up, even when the dealer says it found nothing.
