I could've sworn I read somewhere that this applied to early 4GS's and not so much the later ones

I think the very, very early 2013 models that were made in early/mid 2012 are the only ones that are recalled.

Turned my car in on Monday for the 50k service and this recall. Still in the Buick ES lol. (No offense to it though, it is a nice car for the crowd it's intended for) My service advisor said there has been some difficulty getting the parts shipped and delivered to them. I don't mind though, barely drive 10 miles a week since I don't drive to work...

It's a joke about the Lexus ES. Since it is FWD and drives very floaty like a Buick. It's a nice, comfortable, affordable car for people who don't care too much about performance or want good fuel economy (hybrid).

I took mine in Thursday for the recall. They replaced the passenger seat mounting rails and some electrical components. Take 4 hours of labor to complete it. They gave me a very nice 2015 RX350 to drive for a couple of days but I was very glad to get my GS back.
