So my 2015 350 AWD FSport, made in Japan is affected.
Called local dealer, they said the recall isn’t officially “out” yet but when it is a letter will be sent, Lexus Canada will call me, and dealership will call me. They said the recall is huge.

Just checked the Lexus Canada recall website, and still nothing outstanding for my 2014 IS250 AWD F Sport.
I decided to check the part numbers for the fuel pump, and apparently the 250 has a different low pressure fuel pump than the 350...which kinda makes sense.

RX 350L fuel pump low pressure recall
Hi, did you guys get a Safety Recall (Interim) Notice in the mail from Lexus? Got it in the mail just today Sat April 11 2020. I recently flipped registration from CA to FL which I THINK MIGHT have triggered the letter. Posted only one of around three pages - See Attached. This has something to do with the "low pressure fuel pump" malfunctioning, possibly causing rough engine running, resulting in a stalled vehicle, and unable re-start, which btw DOES NOT sound great. Anyone experience this issue?

For anyone still checking to see if their car qualifies...
2014 LEXUS IS350 RWD - just received interim notice of safety recall: "Preparing the remedy".
I was actually coincidentally on the phone today with local SoCal dealership regarding a possible battery/Network Gateway Computer issue before I received the mail notice, and they confirmed they don't have the parts/remedy yet.

My 2019 IS 300 RWD has started making strange noises from the fuel pump when shutting the car down. Here’s hoping I don’t break down during quarantine. Don’t necessarily want a loaner or want people inside my car at the moment.

The mechanical pump stops when the engine stops. The low pressure pump in the tank stops when the ignition is shut off.
Likely like my vehicle you are hearing the noises from the front of the vehicle...which is normal.

Were they offering a loaner vehicle until the remedy takes place? I thought I read somewhere that they were offering that...

I believe that would only happen if a person's car broke down due to this issue, or when it's being replaced. Otherwise, that's a TON of loaners for who knows how long, since they don't have enough parts to fix this issue yet.
