Defect description

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES FITTED WITH SPEED CONTROL DEVICES AT GULF STATES TOYOTA'S VEHICLE PROCESSING CENTER OR INSTALLED BY CERTAIN TOYOTA DEALERS IN GULF STATES' REGION (ARKANSAS, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, OKLAHOMA, AND TEXAS). THE E-CLIP WHICH HOLDS THE SPEED CONTROL ASSEMBLY TO THE ACCELERATOR LINKAGE COULD BREAK. IF THE E-CLIP FAILS, THE SPEED CONTROL ATTACHMENT COULD COME OFF, CAUSING THE SPEED CONTROL TO STOP WORKING.

Safety risk

THE LOOSE ATTACHMENT COULD CAUSE THE ACCELERATOR TO STICK, PREVENTING NORMAL STOPPING AND HANDLING OF THE VEHICLE.

Manufacturer remedy

GULF STATES DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE E-CLIP WITH A COTTER PIN.
