I see there’s a recall for engine components. Is there a expiration date for when Lexus won’t do this repair for free? I saw on my car fax that there was a recall done but it didn’t specify which recall. I checked my vin on the Lexus website and it said there were no open recalls on my vehicle. Didn’t know if that meant they were all done or they have expired.

SummaryToyota is recalling certain model year 2007-2011 Lexus GS350 vehicles manufactured June 19, 2006, through July 12, 2011; and model year 2006-2011 Lexus IS350 vehicles manufactured May 27, 2005, through July 13, 2011; and model year 2010-2011 Lexus IS350c vehicles manufactured November 25, 2009, through July 19, 2011. These vehicles, equipped with the 2GR-FSE engine, use bolts to secure the housing and sprocket of the Variable-Valve Timing (VVT) system gear assembly. These bolts could become loose due to abnormal impacts generated within the gear assembly immediately after a cold start-up.

This was a safety recall, and safety recalls don't expire.

The current recall on the IS350 involves the Fuel delivery system. I am scheduled to go in to the dealer next week for the replacement of the diaphragm on the fuel pump. A recall that is open for at least 6 months for my car. I figured now is the time to bring it in. There's a Costco nearby so, time will just go by quick. Although that's how you get in trouble, spot buys.
