Lexus RX Recall 26V162: Rearview camera image may not show in reverse

NHTSA campaign 26V162, reported March 18, 2026, 144,200 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain Lexus NX, RX, and TX vehicles may not display the rearview camera image when the vehicle is placed in reverse. The vehicles therefore do not meet federal rear visibility requirements (FMVSS 111).

With no camera image on the screen, the driver has less view of the area behind the vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash, such as backing into a person, object, or another vehicle.

Dealers will update the rearview camera software or replace the rearview camera, as needed, at no charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 15, 2026. You can contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331, and you can check your VIN for open recalls on the NHTSA website.
