| Description of the problem | Tl* the contact owns a 2008 toyota tundra. He stated he received notification of nhtsa campaign id number: 09v388000 (vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal) and received repairs under the campaign. The dealer modified the accelerator pedal and shortened the length to prevent possible pedal entrapment by the floor mat. The contact was not satisfied with the length of the pedal and stated his foot would fall underneath the pedal several times while driving. In addition, his shoe strings would also become caught on the accelerator pedal, causing unwanted acceleration. The dealer advised the recall was a one-time repair and would not provide any further assistance. The failure and current mileages were 40,000. |
