Yes, most everyone here has received the recall notice and taken their GS to their local stealership for the fix and maybe a free tank of gas.

 

Just called and confirmed this is a new recall, and have booked my appointment for this to be serviced! You guys should call your local Lexus dealership and see if you are qualified for this recall!

 

I still need to take my junk in there for this

 

is this a new recall for the same thing? i believe ive had my fuel tank gasket recall back in march. if this is a new recall then ill have to in again. not that i dont mind doing so

 

i, too, also got this done earlier this year.
not sure if the replacement part is also got another recall lol

 

make sure you go with an empty tank.. they fill it for free!!

 

Is this recall for all 3gs??? I have an 06 gs430

 

I believe so... I had this similar recall done back in march also. But i dont mind either, free service, free parts, free car wash &vacuum, and a free full tank of gas; im in there haha . Also to add; a 2015 rental for the day or so.

ChiRaq - I believe it might be all 3gs... but dont quote me.. I would call your local dealer ship and ask about this recall and give them your VIN number.

 

Only if you're not a troublemaker. I'm on the corporate hit list for whining about my carbon buildup, and I did NOT get a free tank of gas for the fuel gasket recall. I did get a very good handwash, with no water spots, so maybe I shouldn't b*tch so much. But what fun would that be.

 

99% certain it was just the V6 models. I'll be the old 430 V8 has been recalled far less than the V6 models. Such a perfect motor.

 

Quick question. What areas of the car do they need to gain access to ?....I'm wondering because it'll be impossible for them to go into my trunk, without taking apart my music/air setup lol

 

bro i seen your setup. they would hate life lol

 

Well I don't see anything on the Lexus drivers site and I just had the October/14 one done in June.
