If you currently or previously owned or leased a Toyota or Lexus vehicle fitted with an Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS), you are automatically included in the settlement and may be eligible to make a claim for $62.50 in cash.
The settlement includes:
• A Customer Support Program that will stand by the reliability of the vehicles by providing prospective coverage for repairs and adjustments needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship in the vehicle's (i) engine control module; (ii) cruise control switch; (iii) accelerator pedal assembly; (iv) stop lamp switch; and (v) throttle body assembly, at no cost to the owner or lessee if any of those parts fail, break, or malfunction. The Customer Support Program will last for ten (10) years after the expiration of any existing warranty for each of the covered parts, subject to a maximum limit of 240,000 kilometres, except that each eligible vehicle will receive no less than three (3) years of coverage from the date of final settlement approval (regardless of when the underlying warranty expires and your vehicle's mileage);
• Free installation of a Brake Override System (BOS) to provide an added measure of confidence in the safety of Toyota vehicles;
• A cash payment of $62.50 for owners whose vehicles cannot be equipped with BOS or are not eligible to be equipped with BOS; and
• A Toyota-funded Automobile Safety and Education Program, which will make relevant US research available in Canada, and will fund four scholarships at Canadian engineering schools totaling $600,000.
