Torrance, California - Toyota Motor Sales has announced a safetyrecall that involves approximately 214,500 Lexus vehicles sold in theU.S. and affected by ethanol fuel. The recall is being launched withthe National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The recall affects certain 2006, 2007 and 2008 model-year GS300/350,IS250/350 and LS 460/460L vehicles. Some ethanol fuels with a lowmoisture content may corrode the internal surface of the fuel deliverypipes. If this occurs, the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) mayilluminate. Over time, the corrosion may create a pinhole in the fueldelivery pipes, resulting in fuel leakage.
Dealers will replace the fuel delivery pipes with newly-designed components. No other Toyota or Lexus vehicles are involved.作者: Hui131428 時間: 2009-1-21 12:20 PM
