The last time I went to the dealer for a recall they backed into it. And I still have that grind on startup(not as much as I used to though) Sigh... 3 more recalls?
Well if they change my steering rack, I would like the steering to feel heavier.

All cars that fall within the affected VIN will be covered regardless of miles or number of owners.
The recalls are from Toyota/Lexus. They are being proactive rather than reactive and forced to a recall by the NTSB.
Many manufactures wait too long or are forced into a recall.

I have an '08... I hope I am not affected.
Is the fuel rail replacement a big job? I looked under the hood, and it seems like the "surge tank" (the black plastic upper intake) has to be removed, but do they need to pull the lower intake also? Because it seems like the injectors sit under the intake ports, in the valley of the engine.
