Subject:
Information on Proper Use of Floor Mats
Models:
2015 and Prior GM Passenger Cars and Trucks
This bulletin has been revised to add the 2015 model year. Please discard Corporate
Bulletin Number 10-08-110-001A.
GM’s carpeted and all-weather (rubber) floor mats are
especially designed for use in specific GM vehicles.
Using floor mats that were not designed for the specific
vehicle or using them incorrectly may cause
interference with the accelerator or brake pedal. Please
review the following safety guidelines regarding proper
driver's side floor mat usage with the customer.
Warning: If a floor mat is the wrong size or is not
properly installed, it can interfere with the
accelerator pedal and/or brake pedal. Interference
with the pedals can cause unintended acceleration
and/or increased stopping distance which can
cause a crash and injury. Make sure the floor mat
does not interfere with the accelerator or brake
pedal.

Do not flip the driver’s floor mat over (in an effort to
keep the floor mat clean).
Do not place anything on top of the driver’s floor
mat (e.g. carpet remnant, towel).
Do not place another mat on top of the driver's
floor mat (e.g. do not place all-weather rubber
mats over carpeted floor mats).
Only use floor mats that are designed specifically
for your vehicle.
When using replacement mats, make certain the
mats do not interfere with the accelerator or brake
pedal before driving the vehicle.

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these
technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper
service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a
job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your
vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the
information.
