Default New Warranty Recall IS

So i got a call from my local dealer last week telling me to bring my car in for another recall item. Unfortunately the CS girl that called was a little dense and could not explain to me what exactly the part was but only that it took 4 hours and the part had to be replaced.

Any of you?

I have a 2007 IS350. They already did the fuel rail thing and the gas pedal carpet issue. Other than that she said the usual, free tank of gas, free car rental, free car wash.

I just had a recall done on my 07, it was something to do with a fuel pressure sensor I believe. I can check my paperwork tomorrow and let you know... here's a link to it:

the fuel pressure thing isn't a "new" recall, but it's possible your local dealer is just now getting around to calling you about it... maybe they're slow and looking to do some warranty work...warranty's still a "paying" job to them.

Yes, that's a really old one. I had mine done months ago.

I thought this was a recall, you do not need to have warranty left to have this completed

Correct! I'm bringing in my 350 this week for the fuel pressure sensor tightening and something else small. '06 model here.

Save labor on spark plugs by having them do your plugs at the same time.
