Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Risks You Can't Ignore

The 2013 Lexus RX 350 may be affected by safety recalls that involve fuel system leaks, fuel pump failures, air bag inflator or sensor faults, and brake or ABS actuator issues. Ignoring these recalls can increase the risk of fire, engine stall, or air bag non-deployment in a crash — consequences documented in NHTSA records. At Nalley Lexus Smyrna we treat safety with urgency: our factory-trained technicians will diagnose recall issues using OEM diagnostic equipment and correct them using genuine Lexus parts at no charge under the manufacturer recall campaign. Addressing recalls promptly helps protect you, your passengers, and other road users, and can also prevent secondary complications such as insurance claim denials or reduced coverage in the event of an incident where a known recall was left open. We encourage owners across Smyrna, Roswell, Alpharetta, Marietta and the greater Atlanta area to call or schedule service immediately if they suspect a recall applies to their 2013 Lexus RX 350; we also offer service financing to help with non-recall maintenance so you can get safe, certified work now and pay later.
