So can anyone confirm about it being on the 430s? My VIN information is out in the garage like half a block away (I live in a apt complex with a separated garage).

It says there are 0 recalls for the 3rd gen GS430s. I checked 2006/07 and 2011. I hope ya'll are right about the gas thing. I don't get paid for another day and the closest dealership is exactly as far away as what I have in my tank. If it is true that they fill your tank then I'll have a free half a tank and a free repair when I get back.

What's your point? Recalls don't expire? I just bought my '07 and it hasn't been done.

Lolll dude ! That's why I'm trying to figure that out, before I even bother going to the dealer.

Anybody know what areas of the car they need to access ?

He's answering the question about whether or not this recall is old or new. He's simply stating that it's old is all.

On another note, thank you for the notice on the GS430s. I wonder why they recall the gs350 tank lids and not the GS430, we share everything the same except for the engine and possibly the fuel pump itself.

Ive ripped the whole trunk apart, I highly doubt they need to get in the trunk to access the fuel tank because I didn't see an access for it there.Last I checked the fuel tank was under your butt in the rear seat from what I heard.

what's this "tank lid" you're talking about? I don't remember doing this, if it's a recall
