No loaner on first visit. Yesterday when I bring it in have to wait for 45 minutes for them to confirm TSB and verify the parts to order. Next time they'll have to give a loaner. LOL. Parts order took 2 days if in stock.
I'm not fond of this recall because they'll have to disassemble the whole passenger seat to fix it. I'll make sure they won't mess up anything else while fixing it.

I thought it was Lexus corporate policy to fill the tank with a recall repair. Hell, when I bought my first Lexus (SC400, 1994) they filled the tank with every service!

Just saw this on http://www.toyota.com/recall website when i put my VIN in to check for service campaigns....Anyone else get this. Looks like it's brand new.
Description
The front passenger seat assembly is equipped with sensors for the occupant classification system which are used to control the operation of supplemental restraint systems (SRS), including the front passenger airbag. The sensors classify the weight of the occupant and activate or deactivate the front passenger airbag accordingly. Additionally, the sensors are used to detect certain vehicle collisions. Due to the current collision detection thresholds, the system may interpret certain occupant seating usages or road conditions as a rear collision and illuminate the Airbag Warning Light and "AIR BAG OFF" indicator, disabling the front passenger air bag. Lexus dealers will perform the remedy at no charge to vehicle owners.
Remedy
The remedy for this Limited Service Campaign will vary by model and model production dates. Lexus dealers will replace the front passenger lower seat Frame Assembly. Additionally, depending on vehicle production date, in some cases dealers will also replace the Occupant Classification System ECU. The remedy will be performed at no charge to vehicle owners. This LSC will be available until December 31, 2017, and will only be available at an authorized Lexus Dealer.

Took mine in for an oil change and this recall.
Car still there til monday.
Update:
Got my car back today with Recall done.
See pic below for charges.
Note. I got a loaner since Sat free of charge. But didn't get lucky enough for a free tank of gas. :-)
According to my dealer... I'm the 1st to do LSC recall at their dealer.

Anyways, it depends on the recall. They did a full tank of gas for the brake recall they did on mine. Have to see the campaign to see whether it gets a free tank of gas.
I've had recalls without a free tank of gas for sure.

Just got mine back today. They did an excellent job, everything back just like before, the seat up and running 18 ways, heat & cool & airbag occupant sensor as well. No trim damaged or scratch. They also gave me a $50 visa card for the recall, no gas tank. The service rep mention every recall come with $50 gift card FYI.
