Parts buyers researching lexus fuel pump recall models should cross-reference public NHTSA campaigns such as 20V-012 and 26V-222, verify each VIN, and stock low-pressure assemblies only against documented OE references rather than model-year lists alone. This guide is a procurement cross-reference for importers and jobbers. It is not a news reprint and not Toyota or Lexus authorized recall fulfillment.
Important: Per the NHTSA Campaign 26V-222 acknowledgment and the earlier NHTSA Campaign 20V-012 acknowledgment, listed Toyota and Lexus vehicles may face low-pressure fuel pump failure risk. Model tables aid planning only; VIN confirmation is mandatory. (Source: NHTSA 20V-012 / 26V-222.)
- FAQ
Part 1. Why Lexus Fuel Pump Recall Models Matter for Parts Buyers
Wholesale demand for lexus fuel pump recall models rises when owners and shops search model lists before they confirm VINs. Buyers who stock from nameplate headlines alone over-buy platforms that are outside the filed population and under-buy SKUs that match documented OE numbers.
This page stays on Toyota and Lexus low-pressure in-tank pump campaigns. It does not repeat the Ford Super Duty diesel HPFP workflow covered in the Ford fuel pump recall stocking guide.
Use model tables as a cross-reference start, then lock inventory to VIN evidence and OE trails.
Part 2. Campaign 20V-012 Model Cross-Reference
The NHTSA Campaign 20V-012 acknowledgment describes a safety recall for low-pressure fuel pump failure risk on certain Toyota and Lexus vehicles. The filing lists a large potential population and states that if the fuel pump fails, the engine can stall while driving, increasing crash risk. The documented remedy path is fuel pump assembly replacement through dealers once available under the campaign.
Representative nameplates called out in the acknowledgment include (not exhaustive of later amendments; always re-check the live campaign record and VIN tool):
| Brand | Models / years listed in 20V-012 acknowledgment (planning aid) |
|---|---|
| Toyota | Certain 2018-2019 4Runner, Highlander, Camry, Land Cruiser, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra; certain 2019 Avalon and Corolla |
| Lexus | Certain RC 300, RC 350, GS 350, GX 460, IS 300, LC 500, LS 500, LX 570, RX 350; certain 2019 NX 300, ES 350, GS 200T |
Campaign documents also note that not every vehicle in a year range is included; inclusion depends on specific fuel pumps and production conditions. Treat the table as a buyer watchlist, not as automatic coverage.
Part 3. Campaign 26V-222 Lexus-Focused Scope
A later Lexus-focused filing, NHTSA Campaign 26V-222, recalls certain 2015-2022 Lexus RC, 2016-2020 GS, and 2022 IS vehicles. Toyota reported that the low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail, with engine-stall crash risk, and dealers will replace the fuel pump assembly. The acknowledgment cites roughly 9,139 potentially affected units and Toyota campaign numbers 26LB05 / 26LA05.
| Filed item | Buyer capture field | Source |
|---|---|---|
| NHTSA campaign | 26V-222 | Acknowledgment PDF |
| Lexus models listed | RC 2015-2022; GS 2016-2020; IS 2022 | Same filing |
| Component | Fuel system, gasoline delivery / fuel pump | LPFP in-tank |
| Documented remedy | Replace fuel pump assembly | Dealer campaign path |
Keep 20V-012 and 26V-222 on separate worksheet rows. Shared symptoms do not merge campaign populations.
Part 4. How Buyers Should Cross-Check Models Against VINs
A practical cross-reference loop for parts planners:
- Identify the customer platform from the model table watchlist.
- Run the 17-digit VIN at NHTSA Recalls and archive the dated result with campaign IDs shown.
- Confirm OEM campaign status through authorized channels when the customer seeks dealer remedy.
- Map warehouse SKUs only after OE numbers, pump type (LPFP module), and packing/test docs match.
If the VIN tool shows no open campaign, do not force a recall-driven buy. Route ordinary replacement demand through standard wholesale cost and fitment checks such as the fuel pump replacement cost guide.
Part 5. Stocking and RFQ Fields for Toyota-Lexus LPFP Programs
| RFQ field | Why it matters | Send with quote |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign ID (20V-012, 26V-222, or other) | Separates populations | yes |
| VIN evidence or model + MY watchlist note | Stops over-buy from tables alone | yes |
| OE number / supersession | Fixes correct assembly | yes |
| Pump type (LPFP in-tank module) | Avoids HPFP mix-ups | yes |
| Destination market | Import and labeling compliance | yes |
| Quantity bands and sample plan | MOQ and lead time | yes |
| Required test or packing docs | Distributor QA | yes |
Normalize these fields before comparing unit prices. A cheaper quote with a different OE trail is a different product.
Part 6. Kangsong Routes for OEM-Equivalent Assembly Supply
Kangsong manufactures fuel pump assemblies and electric fuel pumps for aftermarket and OEM/ODM programs. For Toyota-Lexus platform inquiries that need OEM-equivalent supply rather than dealer recall fulfillment:
- Browse Kangsong products for assembly families matching documented OE references.
- Send campaign ID, VIN evidence, OE numbers, and quantity bands via Contact Kangsong.
- Share About Kangsong when buyers need supplier qualification context.
Do not label aftermarket assemblies as Toyota or Lexus authorized recall remedy parts without written OEM authorization for that SKU.
Part 7. Fit Boundaries Versus Dealer Recall Remedies
Fit Boundary: this page supports model cross-reference and RFQ planning for aftermarket / OEM-equivalent programs when buyers supply campaign, VIN, and OE evidence. It does not authorize third-party recall fulfillment and does not expand coverage beyond cited NHTSA filings.
Re-check campaign PDFs and the VIN tool before each buying cycle; populations and remedies can change.

No. Tables are planning aids. Stock depth decisions require VIN verification and OE mapping.
What RFQ fields belong on Toyota-Lexus LPFP programs?
Campaign ID, VIN evidence, OE number, pump type, destination market, quantity bands, and required documents.
How does this page differ from the Ford Super Duty HPFP recall guide?
This page covers Toyota/Lexus low-pressure in-tank pump model cross-reference. The Ford sibling focuses on Super Duty diesel HPFP campaigns and software-remedy nuances.
