    Yeah...... I think if you get one done they are required to do it all! I took my truck in to get it checked out when I bought it used.... They said it was in awesome shape and that they went ahead and did the gas pedal recall for me...... It hasn't felt the same since. I liked the old shape!

    my airbag light went on couple months ago

    i brought my truck in for some other stuff(4wd clunk,etc) before my warranty was up
    and didnt know the gas pedal recall
    was for tacomas
    some douche mech cut so much off my pedal its ridiculous
    its so crappy lookin too its funny
    dont really care that much as long as push=gas
    but it looks like he used those school safety scissors
    to cut it
    if it can be done wrong
    it will be done wrong for me

    I am worried about the same thing. Wonder what the best way to handle it. I don't want the gas peddle cut. There is no reason for IMHO on my truck.

    Mine came on about a year ago, finally got it fixed in Jan. I called the 800# once thin recall went out and they said my VIN(TRD OR, 4WD, steering wheel controls)wasn't on the list. They even had my case# from my original call to them and I also explained that I had filed a complaint with the NTSB based on everything I had read about this issue. Hopefully our VIN's will get added.
