DETROIT (AP) -- Toyota is recalling nearly 423,000 Lexus luxury brand cars in the U.S. to fix fuel leaks that can cause fires.<br />
<br />
The recalls affect the 2006 to 2011 GS, 2007 to 2010 LS and the 2006 to 2011 IS models.<br />
<br />
Toyota says the cars' fuel lines have nickel phosphate plating to protect against corrosion. Some lines could have been built with particles coming in contact with a gasket. That can cause the sealing property to deteriorate and cause fuel leaks.<br />
<br />
Toyota says it's not aware of any fires or injuries caused by the problem. The company found it after getting complaints of fuel odors.<br />
<br />
Dealers will repair the gasket seating surface at no cost to owners.<br />
<br />
Some of the Lexuses were recalled in 2009 to fix leaks in aluminum fuel pipes.
