Introduction
All 2018 – 2022 model year LC 500 and LC 500h, and 2022 model year LC 500 Convertible
vehicles are equipped with high-friction brake pads specifically designed for superior braking
performance and response. As a result, the front or rear brakes may exhibit a
squeal/squeak noise.
For customers who find these characteristics objectionable, brake pads with alternative material
are now available as service parts.
NOTE
Any changes made to the brake pad material may result in altered and possibly reduced braking
performance and/or feeling under certain driving conditions, including track use.
Please note disclosures stated in the LC 500 and LC 500h sales information, both in print form and
online, and discuss with the customer before installing the alternate brake pads listed in this
Service Bulletin.
It is an inherent characteristic of materials and design of brake pads used in this high-performance
brake system that a brake squeal/squeak noise may result.
