Millions of Lexus and Toyota vehicles have been recalled due to defective gas pedals and floor mats which can cause the vehicles to speed out of control and crash. Many vehicle owners have been involved in accidents after the gas pedals in their cars became pinned to the floorboard beneath floor mats that slid out of place.
In one such high-profile case, an off-duty California Highway Patrol officer and three family members were killed when the gas pedal in their Lexus sedan was pinned to the floor by floor mats which were not the proper size or model for the vehicle. The officer's car sped out of control before crashing on a freeway outside San Diego.
Toyota Motor Corp. recently recalled nearly four million Toyota and Lexus vehicles and said the company will make repairs designed to reduce the risks of the accelerators becoming pinned beneath the floor mats. However, for many vehicle owners already injured or killed in such accidents, the recall and repairs come too late.
