Toyota has recalled 2.3 million vehicles after receiving consumer
complaints about random acceleration. The company says gas pedal mechanisms may
cause the pedal to stick in some cases, causing unintended acceleration.
Vehicles covered in the recall:
2009-2010 Toyota Rav4
2005-2010 Avalon
2008-2010 Camry
2010 Highlander
2007-2010 Tundra
2008-2010 Sequoia
Corolla
Matrix
“Our investigation indicates that there is a possibility
that certain accelerator pedal mechanisms may, in rare instances, mechanically
stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to the idle position,”
said Toyota vice president Irv Miller.
The January 2010 recall comes months after Toyota
recalled 4.2 million vehicles because gas pedals could get caught on floor
mats.
