Lexus RX 350, RX 450h Recalled for Air Bags

Toyota Motor Sales is recalling approximately 5,000 2016 model-year Lexus RX 350 and RX 450h luxury SUVs, so dealers can inspect the driver's knee air bag modules and replace any defective ones.

“The involved vehicles are equipped with a driver’s knee airbag module that may not have been properly manufactured,” Toyota said in a released statement. “This could affect the performance of the airbag and increase the risk in a crash.”

The recall is unrelated to the ongoing Takata air bag recalls.
