I was just looking at the recent update on the air bag recall and noticed that it now has all years for the ISF listed. Anyone with the later model ISF's recently added receive any updates from Lexus at all? I'm assuming it's too early at this point but thought I would ask anyway.
More specifically, do any of my fellow Canadians have any additional information? I find Canada is always late in the game when it comes to recalls.

Just checked on my 2014, nothing listed with the vin I have from NHTSA. There however might be an issue with the fact that the vehicle was in Michigan until a few months ago. I know the region the vehicle was in does play a part, but I'm not sure if there's anything consideration for vehicles that have moved.

I just got off the phone with Treasure Coast Lexus here in South Florida. Tomorrow my 2008 ISF goes in to get the passenger airbag replaced. I've been in 4 rentals since July 25th 2016 and was supposed to be put in my 5th later today because they need the vehicle back for service. I'm told they're replacing them 2 at a time and I'm 1 of the first 2. I'm supposed to keep the rental until they're finished as this is the first time they're doing this recall so they don't know how long it'll take.While it's there I'm going to have them address the possible valley plate leak as I'm still losing coolant after the leaking water pump was replaced a while back. I know it's usually caused as a result of having the fuel pressure sensor leak recall done which mine has had.
