What's wrong?
The low-pressure fuel pump sits inside the fuel tank on the 2018-2019 Rx, Camry, and Nx vehicles included in recall 25V028. Its job is to move gasoline from the tank toward the engine at steady pressure, so the engine has the fuel it needs to start, idle, and keep running.
The problem is inside the pump assembly. The pump impeller, the small rotating part that moves fuel through the pump, was made with lower-density material. That lower density can lead to surface cracking and deformation, and a damaged impeller can stop the fuel pump from working. If the pump becomes inoperative, fuel delivery drops and the engine can run poorly, fail to start, or stall while driving.
Owners can see a check engine light or master warning indicator before or during the problem. The engine can also run rough, refuse to start, or stall at low speed; in rare instances, the vehicle can stall at higher speeds.
