****Major recall for 2002 and up trucks

Toyota has just announced a major recall affecting several models inlcuding Tacoma and Tundra trucks manufactured in the last 6 years. The driver's side floor mat can shift and jam the accelerator. 5 deaths have been reported.

If you have an affected vehicle remove the driver's side floor mat immediately and contact your dealer for information on the recall.

Good thing I bought a couple of those handy dandy clips from the dealer to keep my floor mats in place.

And if you don't know what to do if the accelerator pedal gets stuck you probably shouldn't even be behind the wheel.
