Why This Matters
Properly secured floor mats are crucial for vehicle safety. Unsecured floor mats, especially on the driver's side, can potentially interfere with pedal operation, leading to unintended acceleration or difficulty braking. This TSB emphasizes the importance of correctly installing floor mat retainers to prevent such hazards and ensure the safety of vehicle occupants.
What the TSB Addresses
This Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) applies to all 2021 model year Toyota vehicles. It highlights that these vehicles are equipped with driver side floor mat retainers designed to keep the floor mat in its correct position. Additionally, some models may feature retainers for passenger side and rear seat floor mats. The TSB provides instructions for dealerships to follow during the Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) process to ensure these retainers are properly utilized. This includes ensuring the Toyota Camry floor mat retainers are correctly attached.
Installation Procedure Summary
During the Pre-Delivery Service, technicians are instructed to follow the appropriate installation procedure to attach the driver side floor mat, and if applicable, the passenger side and rear seat floor mats, to the vehicle carpet using the provided floor mat retainers. The goal is to secure the floor mats firmly in place, preventing any movement that could interfere with vehicle controls. This process is a standard part of preparing the vehicle for customer delivery.
Owner Information
If installation instructions are included in the floor mat kit, dealerships are directed to place these instructions in the vehicle's glove box for customer reference. This ensures that owners have access to information on how to properly maintain and re-install their floor mats, further promoting safety and correct usage of the Toyota Camry floor mat retainers and others.
