Lexus Lx570
NHTSA safety across every Lexus Lx570 model year we cover.
Across the 1 model year of the Lexus Lx570 we cover (2019 to 2019), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. 2 recalls have been issued across those years.
The 2019 Lexus LX570 is a full-size, body-on-frame luxury SUV aimed at buyers who want genuine off-road capability wrapped in premium comfort. Positioned at the top of Lexus's SUV lineup, it competes with vehicles like the Land Rover Range Rover and Cadillac Escalade, appealing to affluent families and adventurers who refuse to compromise between refinement and rugged utility.
From a pure safety-data standpoint, the 2019 Lexus LX570 presents a thin picture. NHTSA did not crash-test this model year, meaning there are no federal star ratings to reference and no Safety Index score for MotorCaliber to report. Shoppers cannot lean on federal crash-test results to make comparisons here. That is a notable gap for a vehicle in this price bracket. On the recall front, the 2019 LX570 carries two NHTSA recalls across the model year we cover. Two recalls on a single model year is not alarming by industry standards, but buyers should verify that any prospective purchase has had those campaigns completed before taking delivery. The owner complaint record is unusually quiet, with just one total complaint on file and zero reports of crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths attached to it. It is worth remembering these are unverified allegations, and a low complaint count on a low-volume luxury model can simply reflect a small ownership pool rather than a flawless safety record. The honest bottom line: the 2019 LX570 has no federal crash-test data to reassure or concern you, two recalls to verify, and a near-silent complaint history. Do your recall homework, and recognize the absence of test data as a genuine unknown.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally regard the LX570 as an impressively refined and commanding SUV, praising its hushed cabin, high-quality materials, and composed highway ride. Most note that its driving dynamics feel deliberate rather than sporty, and that the interior presentation and standard feature content justify its premium positioning, even if the overall package is seen as conservatively styled and technologically mature rather than cutting-edge.
- NHTSA did not crash-test the 2019 LX570, so there are no federal star ratings available. You cannot use government crash-test scores to benchmark this vehicle's occupant protection against competitors.
- Two recalls are on record for the 2019 model year. Before purchasing any used example, run the VIN through NHTSA's recall database to confirm all open campaigns have been properly completed by a dealer.
- Owner complaints total just one for this model year, with zero reported crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths attached. While reassuring on the surface, the LX570's low U.S. sales volume means the complaint pool is inherently small, so this figure should be interpreted with that context in mind.
- As a body-on-frame SUV, the LX570 shares its platform architecture with the Toyota Land Cruiser, a lineage known for structural robustness, but without NHTSA crash-test data for this specific model year, independent verification of crashworthiness performance is not available through federal channels.
Most-recalled year on record: 2019 Lexus Lx570 with 2 recalls.
