Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470 Front Disc Brake Rotor Bolt Recall

March 1, 2007 by Alborz Fallah  




Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470 Front Disc Brake Rotor Bolt Recall

Toyota Motor Corporation Australia Limited

2005 Lexus LX470

Vehicles Recalled : Land Cruiser 78, 79, 100 & 105 Series & Lexus LX470
Target Number: 137,479
Model Years From: 1997 to 2005

Problem : When vehicle is operated under severe conditions with repetitive high “G” brake application forward and backward, excessive forces applied to the brake rotor may loosen the front bake rotor bolt/s. If vehicle operation continues in this condition, one or more bolts may loosen further (unwind) and eventually rattle. In the worse case of all bolts on one side displacing, continuous vehicle operation may result in brake pull.

What todo: All owners of affected vehicles will be contacted individually by letter.

Campaign Number: 7531A
