New Limited Service Campaign...SRS system
Just saw this on http://www.toyota.com/recall website when i put my VIN in to check for service campaigns....Anyone else get this. Looks like it's brand new.
Description
The front passenger seat assembly is equipped with sensors for the occupant classification system which are used to control the operation of supplemental restraint systems (SRS), including the front passenger airbag. The sensors classify the weight of the occupant and activate or deactivate the front passenger airbag accordingly. Additionally, the sensors are used to detect certain vehicle collisions. Due to the current collision detection thresholds, the system may interpret certain occupant seating usages or road conditions as a rear collision and illuminate the Airbag Warning Light and "AIR BAG OFF" indicator, disabling the front passenger air bag. Lexus dealers will perform the remedy at no charge to vehicle owners.
Remedy
The remedy for this Limited Service Campaign will vary by model and model production dates. Lexus dealers will replace the front passenger lower seat Frame Assembly. Additionally, depending on vehicle production date, in some cases dealers will also replace the Occupant Classification System ECU. The remedy will be performed at no charge to vehicle owners. This LSC will be available until December 31, 2017, and will only be available at an authorized Lexus Dealer.

So the dealer just called me and said they had to order the replacement part for the recall. It will take a week to get it in. So I have to bring it back in next week when the part arrives and they will replace it. I don't mind. Hopefully I'll get an IS loaner next week instead of the boring RX I got this week...haha.

Mine is all clear too. That's a good thing cause I'm trying to keep those dealer hands off my car as much as I can. Sometimes they fix one thing and create other mess and u don't even know it.
