What it saysTT: Some 2023MY RX500h may require a transaxle and transmission control module (TCU) replacement for low-speed vibration from Transaxle and/or DTC for P084000/P084087. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Lexus filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Mar 12, 2024, received Nov 27, 2023, about the power train — 3 documents under this number. It names 1 model year (2023). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

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.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 1 model year this bulletin names have filed 66 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 23 of them name Power Train, Electrical System — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.

The contact called on behalf of his mother who owns a 2023 Lexus RX500H. The contact stated while his mother was reversing, the vehicle shuddered abnormally. The contact stated that while his mother was depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Lexus L-TT-0328-23 Rev a recall?

No. A service bulletin 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 L-TT-0328-23 Rev repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Toyota warranty extension on file lists the ones Toyota has filed.

Which vehicles does L-TT-0328-23 Rev cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2023 Lexus RX. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
