The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Owners of the 8 model years this bulletin names have filed 142 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 10 of them name Service Brakes — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under.

After 3-5 attempts at braking, we came off the cement driveway as we accelerated and slid off the side of the hill, turning over onto the driver's side of the car and coming to rest near a…

After 45 minutes in stop-and-go traffic the brake pedal went to the floor four times, the Brake Override System (BOS) failed, throwing the shifter into Park failed, and we hit the car in front of us. No warning sounds typical for this car sounded and no lights appeared on the dash.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Lexus 24LE03 a recall?

No. A warranty extension is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 24LE03 repair free?

A warranty extension is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does 24LE03 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years: 2018 Lexus GS, 2017 Lexus GS, 2016 Lexus GS, 2016 Lexus LS, 2021 Lexus NX, 2020 Lexus NX and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
