Dossier-backed inspection brief

2017 Lexus RX inspection checklist

Use this beside the car or hand it to a mechanic. Every check comes from a named issue in the published authority; configuration uncertainty remains visible.

Configuration: 3 reviewed 2017 configurations exist; the model-year authority does not guess which one a buyer has.
