Fitment on this 2010 Toyota Avalon service and repair manual is fixed to the exact year, engine and trim in front of you, Toyota's 3.5L V6 (2GR-FE) in its 2010 Avalon form, so the clearances, torque values and repair sequences it lists are the ones Toyota published for this car rather than figures carried over from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2010 Avalon. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two of them involve the accelerator pedal: in one, the pedal may become hard to depress or slow to return to idle; in the other, a stuck open accelerator pedal may result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop. A third, from Southeast Toyota Distributors, is a frontal air bag recall against the sensor and control module, where the front passenger seat occupant sensing system is out of calibration. Two more are labeling recalls for failing to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, tire selection and rims: on the Southeast Toyota vehicles a driver may overload a vehicle, which may increase the risk of a crash, and on the Gulf States Toyota vehicles the record states only that this does not meet the standard requirements. The sixth covers the front seat heater, where a damaged copper strand heating element may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire. Owners have filed 51 complaints for this model year, and 161 technical service bulletins are on file.
Whether you are tracing a throttle complaint, recalibrating the passenger occupant sensing system after seat work, or inspecting seat heater wiring, it holds you to the OEM procedure and the right specification for this 2010 Avalon.
