Summary:
Utilimaster is recalling certain model year 2012 Reach vehicles manufactured from October 1, 2011, through August 28, 2012. The adhesive used to attach the floor mat to the floor in front of the driver's seat may deteriorate allowing the floor mat to separate from the floor. An unsecured floor mat could interfere with the throttle pedal.

Floor mat interference with the throttle pedal could prevent the throttle pedal from retracting to its normal position, increasing stopping distances and the risk of a crash.
Remedy:
Utilimaster has not provided a remedy plan or a notification schedule. Owners may contact Utilimaster at 1-517-543-6400.
