The defect
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Lexus GS F, 2018 LC500, and 2015-2018 Lexus RC F vehicles, equipped with 5.0L V8 2UR-GSE engines with two high pressure fuel pumps.

The risk
A cracked cover may leak fuel, which, in the presence of an ignition source, can increase the risk of a fire.
