Lexus Toyota Recall Involving Floor Mat

Floor Mat May Cause Accelerator to Get Stuck and
Cause an Accident and Serious Injury
Lexus and Toyota recalled over 4 million vehicles because the removable floor mats could cause the accelerator ot get stuck open under certain circumstances. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) had previously warned Lexus and Toyota owners of the problem and urged them to remove the floor mats on the driver's side.
“This is an urgent matter,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. “For everyone’s sake, we strongly urge owners of these vehicles to remove mats or other obstacles that could lead to unintended acceleration.”
NHTSA noted continued reports of accelerator pedal clearance issues which provide the potential for an accelerator pedal to get stuck in the full open position. A stuck accelerator may result in very high vehicle speeds and a crash, which could cause serious injury or death.
Recalled Toyota and Lexus vehicles include the following:
- 2007-2010 Camry
- 2005-2010 Avalon
- 2004-2009 Prius
- 2005-2010 Tacoma
- 2007-2010 Tundra
- 2007-2010 ES 350
- 2006-2010 IS 250 and IS350
The recall and NHTSA advisory were precipitated by continued reports of vehicles accelerating rapidly after release of the accelerator pedal. The incidents appeared to be related to factors including the use of a variety of unsecured mats, the particular configuration of the accelerator pedals in these vehicles, and the unique steps needed to shut off the engines in some of these vehicles with keyless ignition.
