Toyota and Nissan both ordered recalls Wednesday, according to an Associated Press Report published September 26th. The two recalls were unrelated, but could potentially affect more then 800,000 cars in the United States and Canada.
Toyota Motor Corporation is recalling optional “all-weather” floor mats in the Lexus ES350 and Toyota Camry passenger cars. The move comes after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a consumer advisory about the heavy-duty rubber floor mats. These mats, if left unsecured, could move forward and trap the gas pedal, causing the vehicle to accelerate uncontrollably.
