The recall is to correct sticking accelerator pedals. This follows a 4.2 million-vehicle recall because of pedals getting stuck due to insecure floor mats. From Reuters:
Toyota said its own investigation in recent months had found that some accelerator pedals on those Toyota brand models might stick in a partially depressed position or return slowly to idle. The problems could occur when the pedal mechanism becomes worn, it said.
