On 3/27/12 the car was taken to dealer and inspected for a strong fuel odor upon starting the engine. None was detected. On 4/18/12 it was returned for the same problem. A second inspection found the fuel pressure regulator was leaking fuel and did represent a hazard, but was not the same issue as the recall of 2006-07 models gs 350/350, 2009 is 250, 2006-08 is 350, listed as fuel pressure sensor installation. I was charged $320.73 For parts/labor plus tax. The model is a ls 430. *Tr
