2010 TOYOTA CAMRY Recall

Monday, October 26th, 2009

 images13.jpeg

Toyota has announced that they are recalling certain models of the 2004 through 2010 passenger vehicles.  They stated that the acceleration pedal can get stuck in the wide open position due to its being trapped by an unsecured or incompatible driver’s floor mat.

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 will notify owners of affected vehicles to remove any driver’s floor mat and not replace it with any other floor mat pending the development of model specific remedies.  Toyota will mail a second notification to owners of affected vehicles notifying them of the free remedies when they are available.  The first notice is expected to be mailed during October 2009 and Toyota will advise NHTSA of the estimated date when the remedies will be availbale.  Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331, Lexus at 1-800-255-3987.
