Buyer’s Guide
NEW FOR 2009:
- Turn signals integrated into mirrors
- Exterior colours: Mercury Metallic now exclusive Pebble Beach edition colour; Smoky Granite Mica and Moonshell Mica added; Midnight Cherry discontinued
For 2009, the Lexus SC 430 convertible coupe is unchanged, with the exception of integrated turn signals in the mirrors, and colour changes. The 2009 Pebble Beach edition has also been added, with Mercury Metallic and Ecru Leather colour scheme, dark grey bird's-eye maple trim, Pebble Beach badges and unique 18-inch wheels.
The SC 430 uses a 4.3-litre V8 with six-speed automatic transmission and manual shift mode. It has a retractable aluminum roof that raises or lowers at the touch of a button, and includes an "auto" setting for open-air motoring on the climate control, which directs the air into two streams for when the top is down and the outside temperature is cool.
It comes in a single trim line and includes 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic dual-zone climate control, AM/FM/cassette/CD with wheel-mounted controls, Bluetooth hands-free connectivity, ten-way power heated leather seats, auto-dimming rearview mirror, keyless entry, electronic analog gauges, auto up/down windows, wood and leather-wrapped wheel with power tilt and telescopic, cruise control, navigation system, garage door opener, driver and passenger knee airbags, first-aid kit, auto-dimming heated mirrors with integrated turn signals, water-repellent door glass, variable intermittent wipers, adaptive auto-levelling high intensity discharge headlamps, headlamp washers, and fog lamps.
The sole available option is the Pebble Beach package.
While it does have rear seats, the SC 430 is best considered a 2+2, with very roomy front seats and cramped rear positions. It's a beautiful vehicle that offers quick acceleration and a smooth ride, with the added benefit of a roof that drops for days when the sun is shining. The price drops considerably from the 2008 level.

2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010
Manufacturer Recall Number:
SRC R90 / SRC R91
Units Affected:
37,591
Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
Issue:
On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function.
Safety Risk:
If the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury.
Corrective Action:
Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the passenger-front airbag inflator or airbag module replaced. Note: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected. Additional Note: Vehicles may have had the original front passenger airbag inflator replaced as a “like-for-like” replacement under recall 2016-103 (Toyota Recall #'s SRC 241 & SRC 242) as a temporary remedy while evaluating a permanent remedy. These vehicles will receive the permanent remedy passenger airbag assembly under this recall.

Units Affected:

Notification Type:
Safety Mfr
On certain vehicles, the passenger (frontal) airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during airbag deployment. Increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. This could also damage the airbag module, which could prevent proper deployment. Failure of the passenger airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 2013113, 2014224, 2015197 and 2015269. Correction: All vehicles having not received a replacement inflator as part of the previous recall will now have a replacement inflator installed by dealers. For Matrix model vehicles, dealers may replace the front passenger airbag assembly with one equipped with a newly specified inflator.
