Condition:
The defect is the potential for an unsecured or incompatible driver’s floor mat to interfere with the accelerator pedal and cause it to get stuck in the wide open position. A stuck open accelerator pedal may result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop the vehicle, which could cause a crash, serious injury or death. Toyota has determined that this defect does not exist in vehicles in which the driver side floor mat is compatible with the vehicle and properly secured.
Remedy:
To make it less likely that an unsecured or incompatible driver’s floor mat can interfere with the accelerator pedal on your vehicle, any Toyota dealer will remedy your vehicle at NO CHARGE to you. The remedy will entail modifying the accelerator pedal and the floor surface in the driver’s foot-well.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a set of optional genuine Toyota All Weather Floor Mats (AWFM), it will be inspected to determine if the AWFM set is of an older design. If it is, the older design AWFMs for the driver and the front seat passenger will be replaced with newly designed ones at NO CHARGE to you.
• Before the vehicle is returned to you, Toyota will inspect the driver’s carpet and will clean it if necessary at NO CHARGE to you.
There are approximately 5,200,000 vehicles covered by this Safety Recall in the US
