As you are probably aware, there are several recalls involving certain Toyota models and the potential for accelerator pedals not returning to the idle position when the driver's foot is lifted. We want to make sure that our customers have all of the information they need, so we've created this page. Below are links to more information. If you don't see what your looking for, or need further information, please call us, or use the form to the right.
There are two different issues that are involved. One is related to what is called pedal entrapment, which is caused by out of position or improper floor mats. The other is related to a rare, but potential issue with accelerator pedal mechanisms themselves, which were made by one specific supplier on certain North American built vehicles. This second recall is the one that also involves the temporary halt of sales and production of certain models, which occurred on 1/27.
