Lexus parent automaker Toyota is recalling approximately 144,200 examples of the luxury brand’s gas-only NX, RX and TX SUVs over an issue with the backup camera.

Affected vehicles include model-year 2022-25 NXs, model-year 2023-26 RXs and model-year 2024-26 TXs. The backup camera in these vehicles may go blank when the vehicle is shifted into Reverse, decreasing driver visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.

To resolve the issue, dealers will update the camera software or replace the camera, as necessary, for free. Lexus will notify owners by mid-May, but those with further questions can contact the brand at 800-255-3987, visit Lexus.com/recall, call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or visit its website to check your vehicle identification number and learn more.
