Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain Lexus vehicles

TORONTO, Ontario – April 17, 2024 – Toyota is conducting a safety recall involving certain LS500 and LS500h vehicles. Approximately 105 vehicles are involved in this recall in Canada.

The Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor in the front passenger seat may not operate as designed and can affect airbag deployment. This can result in a noncompliance with safety requirements in some regions or countries and can increase the risk of an injury to a front seat passenger in a crash.

For all involved vehicles, Lexus dealers will inspect the front passenger seat, and, if necessary, adjust a stopper and seat frame assembly near the sensor and recalibrate the system.

Customers will be notified about this issue through the mail by mid-June 2024.
