Lexus Recalls RC F Vehicles for Missing Tire Weight Label

Lexus is recalling 2020-2022 RC F vehicles because the tire information label lacks the vehicle's weight capacity, which may increase crash risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (increased crash risk due to potential overloading) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Lexus) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Lexus RC F vehicles. The recall addresses a defect where the tire information label does not list the vehicle's weight capacity. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The missing weight capacity information means the vehicle can be overloaded without the driver having the necessary data, which increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Dealers will replace the tire information label free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on September 25, 2022. Owners may contact Lexus customer service at 1-800-331-4331 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
