Recall: Highlander Hybrids and Lexus RX400h
Just a public service announcement:
http://pressroom.toyota.com/releases...?view_id=27889

. . .
The Intelligent Power Module (IPM) located inside the Hybrid System Inverter contains a control board with transistors. Certain transistors on the control boards in some of the subject vehicles were inadequately soldered and could be damaged from heat caused by a large current flow during high-load driving.
. . .
Sounds like a reasonable recall.

GOOD LUCK!
Bob Wilson
