Default '07-'10 Fuel gasket INTERIM letter - received it yet? (12/2014)

I have just received mine. They are still preparing a remedy.

"In subject vehicles, the sealing property of the gasket seated in between the pressure sensor and the fuel delivery pipe could become degraded. During vehicle operation, fuel could leak past the gasket. In presence of an ignition source, this could increase the risk of a vehicle fire."

They're on it.

My 83 year old friend got her letter today for her 2010 LS 460 AWD. She called Lexus of Tulsa where she bought it new and they told her they would set up an appointment by the middle of January 2015. I have not received my letter yet for our 2010 LS 460L RWD. Although I am not the original owner I have had it at 2 different Lexus dealerships. Lexus of Omaha and Lexus of Tulsa so I am guessing I should now be listed as owner on record?
