Default 2015 RX-350 recall

I'm sure you'll be notified but here's article anyway..
http://www.autoblog.com/2014/09/18/toyota-v6-engine-recall-camry-highlander-nx/#continued

Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.

According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.

Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary
