Washington, DC: Toyota announced that it will recall certain model year 2010 HS250h Lexus vehicles for failing to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standards No. 301, "Fuel system integrity." When the vehicle was rotated following a crash test as required, the amount of fuel leakage exceeded the allowable limits. Potentially, 17,000 vehicles could be affected.

Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.

Toyota has not provided a remedy for this campaign or has not determined when the recall is expected to begin.
