Default Cranking but not starting

I have a 2008 is250. After a blown right front tire and spare change the car will now not start. It cranks but won’t turn over. Brought to a mechanic which he plugged his computer in it starts. It won’t start without it. He’s baffled. Wants us to take it to Lexus dealer since he can’t figure it out. Any thoughts?

So was he not able to pull any CELs/codes telling you what the vehicle is saying is wrong?

Sounds like the fuel sensor. You can reach behind and disconnect it and it should run for a bit. Lexus had a recall on it and they'll replace it free.
