 Description of the problemAs i arrived at my home and drove up into my driveway i experienced an unexplained acceleration on my 2008 toyota tundra that made me react to slam on the brakes and cause the truck to slide on an unpaved (dirt) surface in my yard and slide into the trunk of a pine tree and damaging the front bumper to my truck. I heard on the news that there was a recall for the floor mats on this vehicle to be removed if it did not have clips to hold the mat in place. My truck does have the clips to hold the mat in place and prevents the acceleration pedal from getting lodged with the mat. I do believe the acceleration problem was caused by an unknown defect and not the floor mat. Currently, the floor mat remains in place on its clips without interference to the acceleration pedal. Today, i received a recall letter from toyota to remove the floor mat, therefore, i will. Again i don't believe the floor mat was the problem. I just want this complaint documented because it caused around $500 worth of damaged to my truck.
