Default Recall for Lexus RX300 Year: 1999 please read!!

Toyota Motor Company
Models:
Lexus RX300 Year: 1999

Number Involved: 23,441
Dates of Manufacture: January - July 1998
Defect: The headlights and taillights may not automatically illuminate in low ambient light when the headlight switch is placed in the "AUTO" position. Vehicles following behind may not see the vehicle, since no headlights and taillights would be illuminated, increasing the risk of a crash. The daytime running lights, operating off the high beams at reduced intensity, are unaffected and remain illuminated.

Remedy: Dealers will install a modified body Electronic Control Unit. Owner notification was to begin during mid-February 1999. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Lexus at 1-800-331-4331.

NHTSA Recall No. 99V011]
