Default Lexus USA Recall RX 2016 Airbag Issue

Heads up...Lexus USA will be notifying owners of the new Lexus 2016 RX350 & RX450h via first class mail in regards to a driver's knee airbag module replacement...this is unrelated to the ongoing Takata airbag crisis.

Do we have to wait till March before we can get this fix applied?

It's not uncommon I'm sure many other recalls will still pop up

No doubt as the RX is new. This is not a big deal and not the end of the world.

I'd rather have a recall ASAP than a GM or Takata like 10 years too late.
