This is right off the lexus site I did a search for recalls and nothing is listed. Car and Driver may have this wrong because the original recall 2 of them effected the 2002 to 2004. The claim was that the air bag serial number changed because of modifications from 2005 going forward. There seems to be a lot of confusion right now. I plan to keep and eye on this. If you look up the air bag part for 2005 to 2010 its the same part number .

I went to Car and Drivers web site to look up recalls they don't give you an option to look up any sc430. You cant get a report on any year SC430

Thanks for the link, DaveGS4! My SC430 shows no active recalls.
Remember that not all 2002 - 2004 SC430's were affected by this recall. I have a 2004 SC430 that escaped it ( so far ).

Lead Lap
I called Toyota/Lexus about it and gave them my VIN. I had the recall done last year. Toyota/Lexus said that since I had the recall done (as shown in their records), my 2002 didn't require the new replacement.
