Question Limited service campaign LSC - l43 (2019) ECM Reprogram

Limited Service Campaign L43 - Remedy Notice - Certain 2019 model year RX 350 and RX 350L vehicles - Engine Control Module Reprogram

From lexus:
"Customer Remedy Notification - Please contact your Lexus dealer as soon as possible to schedule an appointment to have the campaign remedy performed. The engine control module in the subject vehicles is equipped with software to manage the emissions systems. Due to improper programming in the software, the emissions monitoring system may clear the system test results which can result in a vehicle not being able to complete emission testing/smog checks. Additionally, the improperly programmed software can result in incorrect oil pressure under certain conditions which can cause check engine light illumination, harsh engagement when shifted into Drive, and, in some cases, automatic transmission clutch damage."


Transmission may need to be replaced. wow

has anyone got letter for this Campaign? see the attached file.

That looks like the same problem description as for 20LC03 for my 2018:

I am in Canada. Also received similar letter. It does not include replace the automatic transmission. But it include the same campaign number which is L48.

I am in ON, mine is L43, so there are different campaigns. the Sample letter I posted in my original post is the one I got from Lexus website, the file name is L43 but in letter says L48 (which I assume they forgot the change in sample pdf) my actual letter wording is exactly the same of sample pdf except for it has L43.
if the wording of your letter is different than the one I posted, then there are might be two campaigns, L48 and L43.

L43 clearly says this:
"Please contact your authorized Lexus dealer to make an appointment to reprogram the engine control module software. The reprogram will take approximately 1 hour. If transmission damage is found and replacement is required, this will take approximately 9 to 11 hours. However, depending on the dealer’s work schedule, it may be necessary to make your vehicle available for a longer period of time. If transmission replacement is required, a free loaner vehicle will be made available to you."

I think it is different. I think the same reprogram but not sure why your car may require transmission replace (If necessary). I will do it with RA3 together.
