Details

On certain vehicles, if the forward retention clip used to secure the floor carpet cover, which is located in front of the center console, is not installed properly, the cover may lean toward the accelerator pedal and interfere with the operation of the accelerator pedal arm.

If this occurs, the accelerator pedal could temporarily become stuck in a partially depressed position, rather than return to the idle position.

This could result in a loss of throttle control and a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.

Correction: Dealers will replace the floor carpet cover with a newly designed version.

Note: This campaign also covers vehicles which may have been previously included in recall 2006168 (Toyota 609).
