I did pick my HS up today and the warranty work stated that it was a "re-enforcement of the fuel tank filler neck". So be it...I don't know why they haven't screamed it to the world (atleast to the owners of the 17,000 HS's already sold). As I mentioned earlier I was called Saturday by the Service Mgr and told the fix was completed and I could come get the car. He did say my car (and others) were a priority since I had taken it in a month ago when the recall was announced and have had a loaner all this time. He also mentioned more parts should be in within a week or so to do the next round of cars.

The Lexus Dealer called and said the fix is in. I have to drop the car tomorrow and he said 2 hours. My car is the first to have it done at this dealer![Frown](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

Glad to hear our cars are getting fixed. I guess with two newer recalls on more expensive / higher volume cars to deal with now, our recall is no longer on the corporate radar...

FYI - received a call this morning from my salesman in Birmingham. Confirmed the parts are coming in this week and can expect to test drive HS250 next week.
Without even trying she offered that they will be able to deal well below invoice. Not surprising, they will likely want to move these vehicles off of their lots ASAP.

Assuming this fixes the problem and we don't have any more recalls, I don't think resale will be an issue. No fiery videos, no deaths, nothing for the average Joe to recall 2-3+ years from now when we start to put our HS's up for sale. Heck many won't even remember the Camry unintended acceleration by then, or which vehicles had it.

Just got back from picking up my HS250. The service manager said the fix consist of some clips and a collar around the filler pipe. I looked in side the gas filler pop up but could see no difference. He said he would have to mail the paper work because the part numbers were not on the paper work.
The other thing that in the show room the HS250 was exactly the same place it was for over a month and the price is the same on the sticker.
The mystery to me is why haven't this been posted on the Lexus sight!![Sad](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/sad.gif)
I would have announced this last week! Best luck to all. I do love the car

...was seemless. Got a loaner and did my 5000 mi. service at the same time. They washed the car and topped off the tank.
I didn't realize that they wouldn't do the oil change at this time, rather at the next 1 yr./10000 mi. service, unlike with my Prius.
Buttom line: hopefully this re-establishes the safety of the vehicle as well as future resale value

Someone else mentioned on another thread that the first oil change is at 10k, but I just had my 5k service and they changed the oil/filter. I wonder if not all dealers got the word? How many others are getting their oil changed at 5k?

And back to the original thread, I haven't heard boo from my dealer on this yet. I wonder how long they will let me go with this life-threatening defect (
