You’ve probably heard that some Toyota owners have experienced problems with vehicle gas pedals. Some pedals from the 2007-10 model year Camry, 2005-10 Toyota Avalon, 2004-09 Prius, 2005-10 Toyota Tacoma, 2007-10 Toyota Tundra, 2007-10 Lexus ES350 and 2006-10 Lexus IS250/350 can get stuck on floor mats, causing acceleration and high-speed crashes.
My mom has a 2009 Camry, so I need to make sure she sees this info. She should get a letter from the dealer and then maybe an appointment or something to take the car in for a replacement. I think the article I read said something about replacement gas pedals being available in April. Let’s hope my mom’s car doesn’t have any problems before then!
