Lexus Is Recalling 2011 RX 350s

by Ionut Dragomir

The luxury vehicle division of Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation, Lexus is recalling 2011 RX 350s that were built between August 30, 2010 and May 18, 2011 and have Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM).

It seems that the problem for which these cars are recalled is an incorrect calibration for the hydraulic control valves. If you don’t know, this incorrect calibration means the right front tire might not be controlled properly if the ABS or VSC (Vehicle Skid Control) system is activated and that could result in either a longer stopping distance or the failure to correct the slide, ending with a crash in the worst case scenario.

The Japanese company will make the fix free of charge, replacing the brake actuator with a new one. To contact the company, owners may do so at 800-331-4331. Dealers are expected to begin making the fixes in August.
