Default Toyota Recall 3.8 Millions cars

Not sure if this a repost.

If your toyota are listed in the models/year please remove the Driver side>Removable floor mats, The Accelerator could get stuck.

ROFL! you got ripped off, i have 2 sets and i dont use 'em. i like rubber floor mats as opposed to loser carpet floor mats. they kinda suck because when it rains the carpet gets really nasty and crappy
