Subject: Safety Related Recall Campaign - Airbag Sensors
Background Investigations by /H[XVhave determined that a requirement exists for the initiation of a Safety Recall Campaign to inspect and rectify if necessary a condition possibly affecting the Airbag Sensors on a range of Lexus NX vehicles sold in Australia.
Description of Problem The subject vehicles are equipped with an airbag system that uses multiple sensors to detect impact in the event of a crash. Due to two separate manufacturing issues, there is a possibility that the insulation layers of the IC chips could peel over time, creating an open circuit in the IC chip. If this occurs, the airbag warning light will illuminate. Additionally, the side/curtain shield airbags and/or front airbags, may become deactivated. Non-deployment of the side/curtain shield airbags and/or front airbags could increase the risk of injury to the occupants in the event of a crash.
Involved Vehicles A total of 1,386 Lexus NX vehicles involved in the Australian market.
Notes: 1/ Although the involved vehicles are within the above VIN ranges, not all vehicles in these ranges were sold in the Australian market.
2/ # indicates additional check digit (alpha or numeric).
Only vehicles within the affected Engine Range will be outstanding for this campaign on WINPAQ/ Navision.
Only vehicles within the Engine Range are affected.
Date: September 18
Section: BE No.: 04
