Manufacturer recall repairs should be performed at an authorized franchise dealer to ensure OEM parts, correct procedures, and that the repair is documented as completed.

Repair times vary by campaign and parts availability, but many recall fixes are completed within a few hours to a day when parts are in stock. For example, PCS component replacements are typically performed the same day when parts are available; engine replacements (if required) may take longer.

Does an open recall affect my 2021 Lexus ES 300h's trade-in or resale value?
