## What is wrong

Toyota Motor Engineering \& Manufacturing \(Toyota\) is recalling certain 2018\-2021 Lexus LS500 and 2018\-2020 Lexus LS500 Hybrid vehicles equipped with the "Executive Package."  The front passenger seat may have been assembled with interference between internal parts that can cause the Occupant Classification System \(OCS\) sensor to incorrectly detect the occupant.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."


## What can happen

Incorrect detection of an occupant may result in improper air bag deployment during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and repair the front passenger seat, as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed June 7, 2024.  Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1\-800\-331\-4331.  Toyota's number for this recall is 24LA03.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
