Default "ELF" Fuel Pressure Sensor Leak *Remedy Available*

I checked my VIN through the toyota recalls website and the remedy is finally available, so I called Lexus of San Diego to schedule a fix for the ELF campaign and they said it was not available???? lol here is a screen shot of what I pulled up. My question is has anyone got theirs done yet?

I actually had this recall fixed on Friday. When I made the appointment there was no fix but the parts came in Friday morning after I dropped off the car. The advisor gave me a call and they kept it overnight. I picked it up today but didn't get a chance to talk to anyone about the fix.

Looking at the receipt, it appears the labor was marked at 4 hrs and part number is 04004-35238. Sorry I don't have more info than that.

I had mine in this morning for the fuel pressure sensor recall and the service adviser called me after 7 hours and told me there's now a misfire from one of the ignition coils that has occurred as a result of the recall repair (or during the repair) and they need to keep the car until monday to fix it.

Mine took almost a week for fan recall and the ELF fix. After getting it back on my way home I got a CEL and VSC light. Brought it back and they fixed it I guess they didn't hook something up correctly. No problems since.

Dang!!! Those odds aren't good lol, I haven't heard of many others getting it and both of us had issues. Hopefully it goes smoothly with the rest of my repair!

dang... that sucks. At least you guys are getting the recall done. I keep calling and they said they are not prepared to fix the recall at Lexus of SD. I'm going to try another lexus dealership thats around the area.
