Looks like it's only '06-'08 IS350s. '09+ IS350s are spared.

dammit! more recalls! I have like 5 recalls that I haven't done yet.

Funny thing though was that I smelled some sort of fuel scent around my car the other day. Not sure if its purely coincidental or not.

I'm thinking of selling this car now. grrrr

Default New Recall Comming from Toyota Japan HQ!!

From the looks of the article. Looks like a good percentage would affect us.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41266883/ns/business-autos

Just had a look at the owners website for my car. It is also showing an alert on it too!
