I own a 2018 Lexus NX F Sport and have had repeated fuel pump failures since purchasing the vehicle in October 2022. We have replaced the fuel pump twice — once at the dealership where we bought it and again less than a year ago. Despite these repairs, the same issue continues to occur. There were no warning lights before the failure, but once it happens, the check engine light turns on, the traction control light comes on, and the vehicle goes into limp mode. When this happens, the car will not accelerate when pressing the gas pedal. It slows down rapidly and eventually stalls completely. This has happened multiple times, including once in the middle of Dallas traffic and another time while driving to Midland, TX. Each time, my children were in the car with me, putting all of us at serious risk. I have read about the Lexus...

In June 2022, the vehicle exhibited abnormal engine behavior, specifically fluctuating revolutions per minute (RPM), while at a complete stop, creating a risk of engine stall. Newport Beach Lexus dealership opted to replace the fuel injectors and gaskets as a corrective measure. Previous invoices also show that there were concerns related to fuel equipment prior to this incident. Subsequently, in December 2024, while traveling with my child on [XXX] near Barstow, California, the vehicle experienced severe shaking during an ascent, leading to a temporary loss of power while driving. I continued to drive after a brief respite due to the unsafe, remote location in the desert. Upon arrival in Las Vegas, the vehicle was inspected by a Lexus dealership, and they were unable to identify the issue at that time. In January 2025, the vehicle’s check engine light came on and further inspections at Lexus South County revealed that the...

I was driving on 64 and at a sudden my 2018 NX 300 stopped accelerating and engine was stalled. I was lucky that the highway was not busy, so I was able to park it on the shoulder of HWY and later towed it to my home. The car was not drivable anymore as engine was keep shutting down with the warning and engine lights. The code on the screen was P0087 - Fuel Rail/System Pressure - Too Low. It seems that the fuel pump mall function. I research online and noticed, that others also reported the same issue related to Fuel pump failure on this model. Also, on further research, I found that Lexus recalled this model along with other models for the same issue. But when I check my VIN then it shows that my VIN has no recall related to Fuel Pump mall function. Not sure why...
