Defect:
Toyota motor engineering & manufacturing (toyota) is recalling certain 2016-2018 lexus gs f, 2018 lc500, and 2015-2018 lexus rc f vehicles, equipped with 5.0l v8 2ur-gse engines with two high pressure fuel pumps. specific operating conditions may result in damage to the pulsation damper in one of the high pressure fuel pumps, possibly causing a fatigue crack in the fuel pump cover.
Consequence:
