This cracking can cause the impeller to deform, making the fuel pump stop working and causing the engine to stall, which increases accident risk. The affected models include the GS 43/45H, LC500/500H, LS500/500H, LS600H, RX350/450H, and RX350L/450, with specific model codes listed in various configurations.
An importer is conducting a recall to retrieve the affected vehicles from end users. The source does not specify what remedy or corrective action consumers should take.
