Frequently Asked Questions

8 common questions answered

What are the known NHTSA recalls for a 2017 Lexus ES 350?
The NHTSA has issued 11 recalls affecting the 2017 Lexus ES 350, covering Forward Collision Avoidance, Fuel Pump, Steering, Air Bag, Fuel Tank, and Anti-Lock Brake systems. Summary: three recalls for the Pre-Collision System that can unexpectedly apply brakes, five recalls tied to fuel pump or fuel system components that may cause engine stall, one steering recall for a right-hand tie rod lock nut that can loosen, one air bag recall for potential improper knee air bag installation, one fuel tank/fuel pump expansion recall, and one ABS actuator O-ring recall that can affect brake pressure. Authority: All items above are reported in NHTSA manufacturer recall notices and should be addressed immediately at a certified dealer.
How do I check if my 2017 Lexus ES 350 has an open recall?
You can check open recalls using your VIN on NHTSA.gov or bring your vehicle to Nalley Lexus Smyrna for a free VIN recall check by factory-trained technicians. Call our service team or use our online tool to have us verify recalls and next steps; if you want to book a visit, schedule service online and we will check your VIN at drop-off. We use OEM diagnostic tools and direct NHTSA campaign data to confirm which recall notices apply to your vehicle and which remedies are available.
How much does a 2017 Lexus ES 350 recall repair cost?
Manufacturer recall repairs for the 2017 Lexus ES 350 are performed free of charge under the recall program. Nalley Lexus Smyrna will perform all recall work using genuine OEM parts and factory-trained technicians at no cost to you; any unrelated repairs will be discussed before work begins and may qualify for our service specials or financing. If you need flexible payment options for non-recall service, our financing programs and service advisors can help you get service now and pay later.
Can I get my 2017 Lexus ES 350 recall fixed at an independent shop or do I need a dealer?
Recall repairs must be performed by an authorized dealer to guarantee OEM parts and compliance with manufacturer remedy instructions; for free recall repairs you should use your local certified Lexus dealer like Nalley Lexus Smyrna. Independent shops cannot provide the manufacturer’s free remedy or access factory recall parts and procedures — using a franchise dealer preserves warranty, resale records, and ensures correct safety fixes. Nalley Lexus Smyrna offers full recall service with OEM parts, factory-trained technicians, and documented completion so your vehicle remains compliant with NHTSA and manufacturer records.
How long does a 2017 Lexus ES 350 recall repair take?
Most recall repairs for the 2017 Lexus ES 350 are completed in one visit, typically within a few hours, although some fuel-pump or parts-limited campaigns may require appointment scheduling until parts are available. Times vary by recall: PCS component replacement and tie-rod inspections are usually same-day, while fuel pump assemblies sometimes require ordering improved parts — our advisors will give a time estimate when you schedule appointment. We prioritize safety campaigns and will notify you when parts arrive; check current promotions on our service specials page and ask about loaner options or shuttle service.
Does an open recall affect my 2017 Lexus ES 350's trade-in or resale value?
An unresolved recall can negatively impact trade-in offers and resale value because buyers and dealers check NHTSA status and factor safety defects into valuations. Resolving recalls at Nalley Lexus Smyrna restores full manufacturer-compliance records and protects resale value — you can get a faster appraisal by taking your vehicle to our service team and then visiting our trade-in page to start a trade-in. We document completed recall repairs on manufacturer records, which reassures buyers and can prevent delays during sale or transfer of ownership.
Can I fail a state inspection because of an unresolved 2017 Lexus ES 350 recall?
Open recalls do not automatically cause inspection failure, but safety-related recalls—such as steering tie rod or ABS actuator issues—may lead to inspection or registration problems if they affect required systems. Because some recall defects involve brakes, steering, or airbags, Nalley Lexus Smyrna recommends resolving applicable recalls before inspections or long trips; schedule service via our online form to ensure your vehicle is compliant. If you’re unsure, bring the vehicle to our service center and our factory-trained technicians will inspect any affected systems and advise on safety and inspection readiness.
