CTS Accelerator Pedal Safety Recall
Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A Inc, recently announced that they are instructing Toyota dealers to temporarily suspend sales of eight models involved in the recall for the sticking accelerator pedal. 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.
On January 21, 2010 Toyota filed a Defect Information Report (DIR) with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) informing the agency of their intent to conduct a voluntary Safety Recall on certain accelerator pedal assemblies manufactured by CTS.
Involved Vehicles
*Only vehicles manufactured in North America are involved. Vehicles manufactured in North America can be identified by the first three characters (WMI) in the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
*Accelerator pedals installed on Camry vehicles manufactured in North America will need to be inspected to determine if they have CTS pedals.
