The pickuptrucks blog (where this quote comes from) is horrible at conveying facts correctly. They aren't "fixing the gas pedals" on Tacomas. The Tacoma recall is a recall of the floor mats, it has nothing to do with the acceleration system. Toyota has posted that the problem can be prevented by removing the floor mat, and/or installing a newer designed floor mat.
Granted, your point is accurate about Tacoma being affected by the recall, but the way the pickuptrucks blog has it posted is very misleading.
