I have just bought a pre-owned Lexus 2004 RX 330.
There are some recalls on this model. I do not know the ex owner have it fix or not. So how do I know that if my car have been fixed with all recalls or not? And if the recalls were due, what should I do?

Do you drive a 2004 LEXUS RX330?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
