Warning Is Lifted On a Lexus S.U.V.

Consumer Reports magazine is lifting a “Don’t Buy” warning for a Lexus sport utility vehicle that failed an emergency handling test.

The magazine said on Friday that the 2010 Lexus GX 460 luxury S.U.V. passed its test after a dealership updated the software that runs the vehicle’s electronic stability control system.

The Toyota Motor Corporation recalled about 10,000 of the S.U.V.’s in the United States in April after the magazine told readers not to buy them. The automaker also stopped selling them.

Mark Templin, the Lexus group vice president and general manager, said in a statement that the automaker was pleased that the magazine had lifted the designation. He said about 75 percent of GX 460 vehicles had received the software update.
