Got my car back from the ELF yesterday and my plastic piece cracked too.. it's one crack and I'm not thrilled.. we'll see how hard I push for a replacement. I pointed it out before I left and was told I'd be called today but so far that call hasn't come.

I apologize for "stupid" question but how can I take off the engine cover to see if harness cover was damaged or not? It seems that some of you do it right in front of SA so it should be very straightforward but I cannot see how. Thanks!

Picked up mine as well. I did get a fill up which is nice since I brought it in nearly empty. Harness is cracked but I didn't notice until after leaving since it was starting to pour rain as I picked the car up. No tape, just a crack and a small chunk broken off. Hopefully I can convince them to send me a new one. Other than that, no issues I've noticed so far.

I performed the Recall 8/18/15 for the ELF recall, i have noticed that when i leave my parking out of my house there has been an oily residue (Didn't bother checking earlier as i hardly drive the car). WELL this afternoon i checked under the hood and noticed that my car is leaking coolant extensively. It's been about 2 weeks now since the recall was performed. Any thoughts? should i contact the dealer? Can they be held accountable for this?

just thought i would add, South Bay Lexus in Torrance WILL NOT replace the harness after cracking it.
i showed the service advisor my perfect harness, took a photo w/ him before work. then after they had started work, he calls me to tell me that "it is nearly impossible to not crack it bc of the heat cycle blah blah blah." got it back and it was cracked and taped up in two spots. they said w/ "every one" they've done, each one has cracked and the dealership won't be replacing them.

it's up to the SA, although mine didn't crack, SA ordered one just in case....its a $5 dollar part....
try bringing it to another lexus dealership and get a SA that knows our cars...
