Lexus · Passenger car RX

The product poses a risk of injuries because on the affected vehicles, if the forward retention clip, used to secure the floor carpet cover located in front of the centre console, is not installed properly, the cover may lean sideways and interfere with the accelerator pedal. If this occurs, the accelerator pedal may temporarily become stuck in a partially depressed position when returning to the idle position.
