No warning. I had four high school wrestlers in my car and we had just gotten off the highway after driving for 7 hours from Panama City to Port St. Lucie when it happened. My car went into limp mode making it dangerous to continue to drive. My car is currently at the service center at Lexus of Treasure Coast off US1. The technicians have verified that l have a faulty fuel pump and mentioned the recall but stated my year was not included. With my vehicle being a 2020 I feel as though there is a high likelihood that my fuel pump and others are the same as what has been used on previous years that is not being recalled. I would appreciate you reviewing this matter as it seems enough of a coincidence that I could be right.

While driving at interstate highway speed at approximately 70 mph in heavy rush hour traffic, the vehicle suddenly made a popping sound and immediately lost all engine power. The accelerator became unresponsive, and the vehicle rapidly decelerated without warning. I was forced to coast across lanes to the shoulder to avoid a collision. The engine shut down completely and the vehicle would not restart. This created a serious risk of injury or death due to loss of power in high-speed traffic. The vehicle had to be towed and is currently undrivable. Prior to this incident, the vehicle had a long history of repeated engine misfires. Spark plugs were replaced twice, and a fuel line repair was performed. Despite these repairs, the misfires continued. The sudden engine shutdown occurred without warning.

Two (2) times (6-weeks apart) while on Freeway, loss of power and some shaking occurred, making it difficult to bring vehicle to a safe stop. Vehicle has only 80k miles, low for a Lexus brand. Other cars moving at freeway speeds made it more dangerous to stop vehicle safely without getting hit. Failure in both circumstances was related to fuel injectors, cylinder no. 4 at first then second failure six weeks later was on cylinder no. 2, the fuel pump appears to be a known problem on these cars and many Toyota/Lexus models. Low fuel pressure is stressing the injectors to the point of ultimate failure. My wife and kids nearly crashed on the freeway on the first incident, the vehicle with reduced power makes it difficult to control at freeway speeds. Vehicle is well maintained, no warnings were evident, immediate failure occurred. Dealer where vehicle was purchased indicated no...

Premature Injector failure at 33K miles, Lexus would not take responsibility
