Known issues on the 1998 LX 470. One recall is on federal record for this model year. It covers the exterior lighting, specifically the headlights: certain sport utility vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment." The daytime running lights do not meet the luminous intensity standard, and that condition could blind the driver of a vehicle driving in the opposite direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 5 complaints for the year. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind that lighting system are here.

From verifying daytime running light output to a routine service interval on the 4.7L V8, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1998 LX 470.
