What you should do:

Owners of vehicles covered by the floor mat recall should take out any removable driver's floor mat and not replace it with any other floor mat until they receive the vehicle-based remedy.

After you receive a notification from Toyota that the recall remedy for your vehicle is available, you should take your vehicle to Superior Toyota. Superior Toyota’s personnel have been specially-trained to implement the following vehicle-based remedy:

The shape of the accelerator pedal will be reconfigured to address the risk of floor mat entrapment. For the Camry and Avalon models involved, the shape of the floor surface underneath will also be reconfigured to increase the space between the accelerator pedal and the floor.  If applicable, vehicles will also receive a "re-flash," or update to the software that prevents acceleration while the brake pedal is depressed.

What else you should know:

The remedy for floormat entrapment recall procedure takes a bit longer than the gas pedal recall procedure to complete.  You should plan to drop your vehicle off at Superior Toyota, or take advantage of our service shuttle.
