For 2009, the RX 350 is unchanged, except for some changes to its trim packages: there is a new Premium Package with Navigation, a Touring Package that further adds 18-inch wheels, and a new Pebble Beach Edition similar to that of the SC 430, which adds special wheels, colours, badges and a spoiler, and includes a leather bag and matching wallet.
The hybrid RX 400h model has been temporarily discontinued, but will return for 2010.
The smallest Lexus SUV, the RX 350 uses a 3.5-litre V6 with five-speed automatic transmission, and includes full-time four-wheel drive.
Features include 17-inch alloy wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, six-CD/MP3 stereo with wheel-mounted controls, heated leather seats with 10-way driver and eight-way passenger power adjustment with memory, 40/20/40-split second-row seats, keyless entry, auto-dimming rearview mirror with compass, auto up/down on all windows, cargo cover, maple or walnut wood grain trim, power tilt and telescopic wheel, cruise control, garage door opener, cargo area tie-downs, driver's knee airbag, first-aid kit, anti-theft system, heated auto-dimming side mirrors, water-repellant door glass, roof rack, rear spoiler, rain-sensing wipers, light control system and headlamp washers.
Feeling more like a large sedan than an SUV, the RX is nimble and manageable and contains numerous features. There's also practicality along with the luxury, including a rear seat that slides backward or forward to maximum leg or cargo room, depending on what's needed. Those who prefer the fuel economy of a hybrid will have to wait for a new model next year.

Issue: This recall is for certain block heater kits installed on certain vehicles or sold as accessories at Toyota or Lexus dealerships. On certain vehicles, the engine block heater cable may not have enough heat protection and could be damaged by high temperatures. If this happens, the cable could short circuit while plugged in, and cause the wiring to overheat or melt. Note: This recall only affects the following block heater/cord part numbers: C014003034 PK5A408J09 PU14000904 C014003151 PK5A408J13 PU14000905 C014000885 PK5A489J11 PU14000907 C014000888 PK5A489J22 PU14000909 C014000907 PK5A410H00 PU14000911 C014100904 PU14000900 PU14000913 C014100907 PU14000901 PU14003571 C014100911 PU14000902 PK5A408J05 PU14000903 Safety Risk: Engine block heater wiring that overheats or melts could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Toyota recommends that you should stop using the engine block heater immediately. Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to disable the engine block heater. For some vehicles, the corrective actions for this recall are under development. For others, a new engine block heater cannot be installed, and the owner will receive a refund of the purchase price of the engine block heater.

The Lexus RX350 is one of the best values in a pre owned vehicle. Great features, reliability, and value. I'll definitely be adding another one in the future.
How long does a 2009 Lexus RX 350 last?
With that being said, although I think this car is for anyone looking for a comfortable luxury SUV, these are problems to look for in this car as any other car. It sounds bad but this car trouble-free is solid and has the capacity last up to 300,000 miles with no major issues.
What is the best used year for Lexus RX350?
According to industry reviews, consumer feedback, reported problems, and NHTSA statistics, the most reliable years for Lexus RX350 are 2014, 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. In these particular years, the car received the highest ratings in terms of safety, reliability, and performance.
Does a 2009 Lexus RX 350 have a timing chain?
The 2009 RX 350 has a timing chain so no maintenance is required for the timing chain it self. It is NOT a wise move to run a vehicle past a recommended repair until something breaks.
