Everyone got that recall, it's unnecessary if you have the proper floormats installed correclty, but it's mandatory nevertheless if you want to continue servicing your car at the dealership (for liability issues).

Rocketship ..... I think you must have been in a rocketship for the last year or so. Do a search here to find out what it is all about, you'll be reading for hours.

I did and I believed it was mandatory, but if you did not want it done you have to sign a release or liability form? But I got mines down couple of months ago at Lexus of Kearny Mesa and when I got my car back, my window visor on my passenger side was messed up

NOOOO ! I mean how? The visor in the center pops out like it was being lifted by the visor and I didnt notice it till I got home. I was soo sad because I only had it for a week at that time.
