What Does the Lexus Maintenance Required Light Mean?

Your Lexus vehicle features a number of innovative amenities, and one of the most helpful is the Lexus Maintenance Required Light. This reminder illuminates automatically after around 3,500 to 5,000 miles of driving around Seattle and Bothell. If you see this light pop up, don’t worry. It does not mean that there is anything wrong with your vehicle. It is simply letting you know that you should start thinking about your 5,000-mile service visit.
