Toyota pedal issue

February 1st, 2010 by Tom · No Comments · Default, tundra

People are whining all over about a stuck accelarator pedal on Toyotas. My Tundra is affected. If people truly understood what they were talking about, the would not worry so bad.

Basically it gets stuck. Toyota advises te customer to remove the mat on the driver’s side. Ok, it sticks on the mat. Also, the “rare instances” they describe are when you press the accelerator to the floor! Not many people do that daily or at all!

What to do when it happens? Be calm. Tap the gear selector to Neutral. Turn key back one click (not off or remove the key). Pull the thing over and stop without power steering or power brakes. That is it. Then reach down and pull the pedal up and carry on!

It’s ok, people. Just use your head.
