Actual Toyota and Lexus floor mat recall announced

10/13/2009 - The Feds just released the official floor mat recall notice that affects more than 3 million Toyota and Lexus cars that could be at risk for acceleration problems. A couple of weeks ago the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration took extreme steps and announced a rare warning about the situation--telling car owners to just take the mats out until the manufacturer comes up with a plan to deal with the predicament.

Looks like Toyota is still working on a prototype mat to replace the defective ones. In the meantime, the automaker is going to send recall notices that say "take the mats out of your car."

According to the actual notice below, car owners should get that letter in the mail this month. And when Toyota comes up with a new, safe mat, a second notice will be mailed out with info on how to get replacements. So essentially the company is saying, when we figure it out, we'll let you know!

If you own one of these makes and models, but do not get a recall notice, call your dealer ASAP. They can look up your car's VIN (vehicle identification number) and confirm you are eligible for free new mats. Whenever they design 'em, that is... until then, wear clean shoes in your car.
