[Localhost]

Hi all,

Just received this link from a friend in the US.

Which models are involved in the sticking accelerator pedal recall/stop sale?

Toyota’s accelerator pedal recall and suspension of sales is confined to the following Toyota Division vehicles:

• Certain 2009-2010 RAV4*,

• Certain 2009-2010 Corolla*,

• 2009-2010 Matrix,

• 2005-2010 Avalon,

• Certain 2007-2010 Camry*,

• Certain 2010 Highlander*,

• 2007-2010 Tundra,

• 2008-2010 Sequoia

*Highlander hybrids and Camry hybrids are not involved in this action and will remain for sale. Further, Camry, RAV 4, Corolla and Highlander vehicles with VINs that begin with "J" are not involved.

What is a “VIN” and how do I find it on my automobile?

A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a 17-character sequence of numbers and letters that is used by the automobile industry to uniquely identify motor vehicles. It can be viewed through the windshield on the driver’s side at the front of the dashboard.

In addition, the VIN number is also located on a sticker located the driver’s side pillar, with the tire inflation information and on the vehicle’s registration.

as far as I am aware, all toyotas in australia are either imported from japan, or made in melbourne... using the denso parts, hence no recall here.

The issue is with the CTS manufactured part used in the USDM models.

Pretty sure Hiluxes come from Thailand now...
