The precise number of involved units is still under investigation,Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Key, but may reach up to 1.8 million vehicles. No Lexus models and no other Toyota types are affected.
“Toyota’s policy is to put its customers first, in all circumstances”,Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Plus Key, said Tadashi Arashima,Windows 7 Ultimate X86, President and CEO of Toyota Motor Europe. “We understand that the current situation is creating concerns, and we deeply regret it. We would also like to reassure customers: the potential accelerator pedal issue only occurs in very rare circumstances. The announced action is a preventive measure aimed to guarantee the highest safety standards to all customers.”
For subject vehicles, 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.
This issue is caused because the accelerator pedal mechanisms concerned may become worn. This progressive wear, combined with certain operating and environmental conditions, can cause friction in the mechanism to increase and intermittently result in the accelerator pedal being harder to depress,Windows 7 Enterprise Key, slow to return or, in the worst case,Windows Server 2003 Online Training Tutorials, stick in a partially open position.
Toyota has identified a remedy for this issue, and is currently pursuing a final evaluation and confirmation procedure. As soon as the countermeasure is confirmed, Toyota will communicate to all customers and other concerned parties the particulars of the corrective action and of the implementation procedure.
A running change in production using different parts has already been implemented model-by-model for the designs on sale in Europe, as part of Toyota’s continuous quality improvement policy. Therefore there is no need or intention to stop production in Europe.
Only a limited number of incidents have been reported in Europe, and Toyota Motor Europe is not aware of any accident resulting from this issue.
Toyota is making every effort to address this situation for our customers as quickly as possible.’
Whilst this condition is rare we advise customers who have concerns to contact Toyota GB Customer Relations () for assistance ahead of the recall instructions being issued.
