Questions
Is there an open recall on my Lexus IS?
Only your car's VIN can tell you: a recall stays open on a car until a dealer has done the repair. Enter the 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or in the CarsMultiverse VIN check. Since 2012 the Lexus IS has had 9 US recall campaigns.
What should I do if my Lexus IS is recalled?
Book it with an authorised dealer of the make. Under US law a safety recall repair is free. If the notice says not to drive the car or to park it outside, do that until it is fixed.
