POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

The defect
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2025-2026 Lexus LX600 vehicles. In the event of transmission solenoid failure, the communication may fail between the transmission electronic control unit (ECU) and the engine ECU, resulting in transmission damage.
What it can cause
A damaged transmission can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, a damaged transmission can leak transmission fluid, increasing the risk of a fire.
What the dealer does
Dealers will update the transmission ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 13, 2026. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is 26LA01.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 4,374 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 73% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2025 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Lexus vehicles have been recalled over the power train 2 times before this, most recently in February 2024 as 24V125000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 25V744000 (back over prevention).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing with NHTSA on February 18, 2026 as campaign 26V094000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
