| Description of the problem | My 2009 toyota avalon has two recalls. Floor mat interference & sticky accelerator pedal. I received a recall letter 4 months ago from toyota but have never received a follow-up letter for repair. I have contacted toyota several times by mail but they never responded. Toyota is installing brake override software on new avalons, however is not available at my dealership for my car. My complaint is toyota is installing the software on new cars but is not making it available for my car. That is a serious mishandling of safety. Toyota needs to be forced to take care of cars on the road before new production avalons. |
