2009 TOYOTA MATRIX Recalls (3)

Campaign:
10V023000 on 01/27/2010
Component:
Vehicle speed control:accelerator pedal
Affected:
1,126,915
Defect:
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 highlander, model year 2009-2010 corolla, venza and matrix passenger vehicles. the accelerator pedal can get stuck in the wide open position due to its being trapped by an unsecured or incompatible driver's floor mat. this recall is an expansion of a campaign of 3.8 million other toyota vehicles announced in 2009 for the same issue (see 09v-388).
Consequence:
A stuck open accelerator pedal may result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop the vehicle, which could cause a crash, serious injury or death.
Correction:
Toyota will modify or replace the accelerator pedals on the subject vehicles. floor surface modifications are also being considered and will be included for any model for which it is deemed appropriate. initially, dealers will be instructed on how to reshape the accelerator pedal for the repair. as replacement parts with the same shape as the modified pedal become available, they will be made available to the dealers for the repair. customers who have had the pedal reshape remedy completed will have the opportunity to receive a new pedal if they desire, after replacement pedals become available. in addition, toyota will replace any toyota all-weather floor mat in a subject vehicle with a newly designed mat, free of charge. for those customers who have the previous design all-weather floor mat but do not need or want the newly designed all-weather floor mat, toyota will recover the previous design all-weather floor mat and reimburse its price. the safety recall began march 30, 2010. owners may contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
Notes:
Toyota recall no. 9lg/90l.owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to <a href=http://www.safercar.gov>http://www.safercar.gov</a> .

Campaign:

Affected:

Defect:
Gulf states toyota is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 vehicles for failing to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims." these vehicles were sold between september 1, 2005 and june 2, 2008 without the requisite load carrying capacity modification labels.
Consequence:
This does not meet the standard requirements.
Correction:
Dealers will mail to consumers the corrected label or the customer will have the option for dealers to install the label free of charge. dealers will also correct the owner's manual. the safety recall began on may 27, 2010. owners may contact gulf states toyota at 713-580-3300.

Consequence:
An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Correction:
Toyota will notify the toyota and lexus owners. general motors will contact the pontiac owners. depending on the model, dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator or the air bag assembly, free of charge. the recall began on december 6, 2016. owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. toyota's numbers for interim notification for this campaign are g1p (toyota zone a), g1r (toyota zone b), g2g (lexus zone a), and g2h (lexus zone b). toyota's numbers for final remedy for this campaign are g0p (toyota zone a), g0r (toyota zone b), glg (lexus zone a), and glh (lexus zone b).
