Can I get my 2026 Lexus RX recall fixed at an independent shop or do I need a dealer?
For official manufacturer recall repairs you must go to a certified franchise dealer so the repair is recorded and performed under the recall program; take your vehicle to Nalley Lexus Smyrna for free, manufacturer-approved recall repairs.

How long does a 2026 Lexus RX recall repair take?
Repair times vary by recall but many manufacturer recall repairs are completed within a few hours; Nalley Lexus Smyrna will provide an estimated turnaround when you schedule service.
