I-CAR · January 3, 2019 · Lexus
Summary
This article outlines the sectioning and partial part replacement guidelines for the 2018 Lexus LC 500h, detailing which structural components can be sectioned and which require full-part replacement. It highlights that while the outer and inner unisides, rear rail, and trunk floor have sectioning or partial replacement options, the front rails, uniside reinforcement, and rear body panel do not.
What to do on the job
Perform full-part replacement on the front lower rail, front upper rail, uniside reinforcement, and rear body panel, as sectioning is prohibited on these components.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the cost of full-part replacement for the front rails, uniside reinforcement, and rear body panel during estimating and negotiations, as Lexus explicitly prohibits sectioning or partial replacement on these specific high-strength components.
