Affects Lexus NX 250, NX 450h, NX 350h, NX 350 · 2022 — about 506 vehicles.

The hazard

Issue: On certain vehicles, the body panels near the front shock absorber mounts may be missing welds. As a result, the shock absorber mounting areas could crack over time and break. If this happens, a shock absorber could separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle stability. Safety Risk: A loss of vehicle stability could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Lexus will contact owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the spot-welds around the front shock absorber mounting areas. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
