Lexus LX 600 Safety
NHTSA safety across every Lexus LX 600 model year we cover.
Across the 5 model years of the Lexus LX 600 we cover (2022 to 2026), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. 1 recall have been issued across those years.
The Lexus LX 600 is a full-size, body-on-frame luxury SUV that competes at the very top of the segment alongside vehicles like the Land Rover Defender and Cadillac Escalade. Riding on Toyota's TNGA-F platform, it targets affluent buyers who want genuine off-road capability wrapped in a premium cabin. It seats up to seven and carries serious towing credentials alongside its upscale positioning.
The 2022-2025 Lexus LX 600 lacks a critical piece of crash-safety information: NHTSA has not published crash-test star ratings for this generation across any model year. This means federal frontal impact, side impact, and rollover resistance scores are unavailable, and our computed Safety Index for the LX 600 cannot be determined. For a vehicle at its price point, the absence of independent crash-test validation for these model years is a notable omission. Conversely, the LX 600 maintains a strong record in other safety areas. Across the 2022 through 2025 model years, NHTSA records show zero recalls. This indicates robust manufacturing quality for a vehicle in this segment. Owner complaints filed with NHTSA are also minimal, totaling 21 across all covered years. These complaints list zero reported crashes, zero fires, zero injuries, and zero fatalities. While owner complaints are unverified allegations, these low figures are encouraging. Ultimately, the LX 600 has generated no red flags from recalls or injury-related complaints. However, safety-focused buyers evaluating the 2022-2025 LX 600 should be aware that federal crash-test performance data is not available.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally praise the LX 600 for its exceptionally refined and well-appointed interior, with high-grade materials and a serene ride quality that sets it apart in the full-size luxury SUV segment. Most find the driving dynamics composed if not sporty, and the off-road capability is broadly regarded as class-competitive. Some reviewers note the infotainment interface as a weakness relative to European rivals.
- NHTSA has not crash-tested the 2022-2025 LX 600 at all - there are no federal star ratings or Safety Index scores for this generation, leaving a significant gap in the independent safety-verification picture.
- The LX 600 has a perfect recall record across the entire 2022-2025 window we cover, with zero recalls issued - a meaningful result for a flagship vehicle on a relatively new platform.
- Owner complaints filed with NHTSA are very low at just 21 total across all covered years, and critically, none of those complaints involved a reported crash, fire, injury, or fatality. All complaints are unverified allegations.
- Because this is a low-volume, premium-tier SUV that has not attracted federal crash-test attention, shoppers who prioritize verified crash-safety scores should also check whether IIHS has evaluated this model before making a purchase decision.
Most-recalled year on record: 2026 Lexus LX 600 with 1 recalls.
