2021-2022 Toyota Floor Mat Retainer Installation TSB

What this TSB addresses

This Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) from Toyota provides instructions for dealers regarding the proper installation of floor mat retainers in 2021 and 2022 model year vehicles. The purpose of these retainers is to secure the floor mats, preventing them from shifting and ensuring they remain in the correct position.

Specifically, the TSB focuses on the installation of driver side floor mat retainers, and where applicable, retainers for passenger side and rear seat floor mats. Correct installation is crucial for vehicle safety and preventing potential interference with pedal operation.

Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) Procedure

During the Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) process, technicians are instructed to follow a specific installation procedure. This involves attaching the floor mats to the vehicle's carpet using the designated Toyota floor mat retainers.

If the floor mat kit includes its own set of installation instructions, these should be placed in the vehicle's glove box. This ensures that customers have access to the information for future reference or if they need to remove and reinstall the floor mats.

Important information for owners

If you own a 2021-2022 Toyota vehicle, it's important to ensure your floor mats are properly secured. Your dealer should have completed the floor mat retainer installation during the Pre-Delivery Service.

Check your vehicle's glove box for any floor mat installation instructions that may have been provided with the floor mat kit. These instructions can be helpful if you ever need to remove or re-secure your floor mats.
