Lexus LS Models Recalled Due to Tire Issue
Toyota is recalling about 6,000 2018 Lexus LS500 models.
The involved vehicles are equipped with run-flat tires that were assembled to the wheels improperly. There is a possibility that a crack could develop on the sidewall reinforcement layer of the tires. Under certain driving conditions, portions of the tire tread layer could separate, causing a reduction of vehicle stability and increasing the risk of a crash.
For all involved vehicles, all four tires will be replaced with new ones at no charge to customers if one or more tire(s) are run-flat tire(s) manufactured by a specific tire supplier. Owners of all the vehicles involved will be notified by late April.
