Model records

What changes the warranty calculation

Our Lexus NX 350 records contain 1 submitted complaints across 5 model years. The median count per model year is 0 reports, which lets you compare a year with the middle of this model's recorded counts.

The 2023 record contains 1 complaint reports. No listed year has a higher raw count, though other years may be tied. This comparison uses all listed years without adjusting for sales or time on the road; it does not establish a failure rate.

Engine replacement or major internal repair has the highest midpoint parts estimate among the applicable repair categories, at $7,000. Check whether that system remains under factory coverage before pricing an extra contract.

Body & structure

Official safety recall2022Campaign 22V238000

Body or structural component may fail

Missing spot-welds between the body panels and the front shock absorber mounting areas may cause the front shock absorber to separate from the mounting area.

NHTSA campaign 22V238000 includes certain 2022 Lexus NX 350 vehicles. Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Lexus) is recalling certain 2022 NX250, NX350, NX350h, and NX450h+ vehicles. Missing spot-welds between the body panels and the front shock absorber mounting areas may cause the front shock absorber to separate from the mounting area. A separated shock absorber can cause a loss of vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash.

Symptoms to compare
  • A body or structural part may feel loose, make noise or detach, although warning signs are not guaranteed
  • An open campaign appears when the complete VIN is checked
  • Some recalled vehicles may show no advance warning before the component fails

Other ways owners describe it: body panel feels loose; part hanging under car; rattle from body; roof part coming loose; body component detached; structure recall.

Which vehicles the source covers
  • 2022 Lexus NX 350
  • NHTSA campaign 22V238000
  • The manufacturer filing lists 4,215 potentially affected units across the complete campaign.
  • VIN eligibility determines whether this recall applies to an individual vehicle

Safety recall eligibility is based on the VIN and campaign scope, not ordinary warranty mileage. Check the complete VIN even when the vehicle is outside its original warranty.

Official NHTSA safety recall2022

Electronic parking brake may fail to engage in Park

NHTSA campaign 22V661000 lists the 2022 Lexus NX 350 for a condition in which electronic parking brake may fail to engage in Park.

NHTSA lists the 2022 Lexus NX 350 in safety campaign 22V661000. The official record says: The Skid Control ECU within the Brake Actuator Assembly may falsely detect an overcurrent condition of the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) Actuator and enter a failsafe mode which prevents the EPB from being engaged. The stated safety consequence is: An electronic parking brake that cannot be engaged while in "park," may result in a vehicle rollaway, increasing the risk of a crash. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.

Symptoms to compare
  • The electronic parking brake may not engage while the vehicle is in Park.
  • The vehicle may roll if the parking brake remains disengaged.

Other ways owners describe it: 2022 NX 350 parking brake not engaging; Lexus NX rolls away while parked; NX350 skid control ECU parking brake problem; NX 350 service brakes, hydraulic recall; NHTSA campaign 22V661000.

Which vehicles the source covers
  • 2022 Lexus NX 350
  • Vehicles included in NHTSA campaign 22V661000
  • VIN confirmation is required

Campaign 22V661000 is based on the recalled vehicle population and VIN, not a published mileage threshold. Mileage alone cannot confirm or exclude it.

Confirm who pays before authorizing work

A recall remedy follows the campaign and VIN eligibility. A service bulletin provides diagnosis or repair instructions; it does not by itself promise payment. Manufacturer warranty extensions and support programs have their own conditions.

Keep a current problem separate from future coverage

These files do not supply a shop quote. Ask for a diagnosis and written estimate, then check recall remedies or existing coverage. A new vehicle service contract generally excludes pre-existing conditions.

Each file retains its original source review date. Historical remedy wording can change; check the current manufacturer notice and NHTSA VIN lookup for your vehicle. The separately dated NHTSA counts elsewhere on this page use a different dataset and scope.

The evidence behind a repair estimate

In our 44-category library, 24 categories have attached published benchmarks and 20 use planning assumptions. The audit separates the appearance of a precise total from the strength and scope of its inputs.
