Recall

[Richard1200]

Had a recall letter today for my late 2023 UX Takumi. Front or rear camera may have a manufacturing fault, it needs to be inspected and changed if needed.

Just had mine as well so will need to book it in soon

This doesn't appear to extend to my 2020 UX...the UK Gov website says my car is currently free from any recalls🤔  Is that right?

I believe it only covers certain months/years of production when the “faulty” cameras were fitted. It’s not urgent, I believe it’s visual at first so having mine done in early November with my first service.

Is the front camera supposed to have a grey triangle on the screen at the top middle?

To deter people from using it to drive instead of looking out the windscreen

I got the camera recall letter a couple of weeks ago and have the car booked in for that. But yesterday had a text from Lexus saying that there's a safety recall and asking me to phone. As I'm busy all today I just wondered if anyone knows if there's another recall in addition to the camera issue?

Unfortunately the Lexus UK recall checker website isn't very explicit as for my car it just reports:

We have identified that your Lexus is subject to a voluntary customer service campaign or outstanding safety recall.

And advises phoning a dealer.

I rang Lexus yesterday and the text does refer to a separate recall from that for the camera. Apparently it's a software issue which takes about an hour to fix. Mine will be done during the same visit that's booked for the camera work. I don't know what safety issue the software recall is to fix.
