Need Help Finding Accelerator Pedal w/ Sensor for 2010 Pontiac Vibe AWD (2.4L) — Toyota Pedal Compatible?

[Taymart]

Hey everyone I’m having a frustrating issue and hoping someone here might’ve already figured this out.

I have a 2010 Pontiac Vibe AWD with the 2.4L engine, and my vibe needs the Accelerator pedal with position sensor replaced because my local mechanic told me the accelerator pedal assembly with the position sensor is bad and needs to be replaced. The GM part number I’ve been told I need is 19205346, but that part is discontinued and basically impossible to find.

I’ve searched everywhere online and nothing is available as a OEM GM part. My mechanic basically told me there’s nothing that can be done because GM doesn’t make it anymore and there aren’t any left in stock anywhere.

A few people online have mentioned that Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies (like from a Matrix or Corolla) might work since the Vibe and Matrix are essentially the same platform and share the electronic throttle system. The Toyota OEM pedal part numbers I see referenced most often are things like:
• Toyota 78110-08010 / 7811008010
• Toyota 78110-07011

It seems these parts include the pedal and position sensor. My big questions are:
1. Has anyone here successfully used a Toyota pedal (like 78110-08010 / 7811008010) in a 2010 Pontiac Vibe?
• Did it plug in without modifications?
• Did it bolt in and work perfectly, or did you need to do any wiring/harness adapters?
2. Does anyone know of another source for the original GM part #19205346?
• Or any GM part number that supersedes i.e., a newer GM pedal assembly that does fit?
3. Are there any other compatible aftermarket pedals with position sensors that will work with the Vibe’s wiring?

My mechanic says nothing can be done because the part is discontinued, but I’m hoping someone here has a workaround. I really don’t want this car to be totaled over one part that might technically still exist somewhere!

Thanks in advance if anyone has experience with this or can point me in the right direction!

Hello and welcome to the forum.

I can't confirm using a Toyota accelerator pedal in your Vibe as I don't have a 2nd Gen Vibe.
I know most parts are interchangable between the Vibe and Matrix and I use that interchangability a lot on my 1st gen cars.
You may want to look a different direction, towards car-part.com .
I just did a search there for 2010 Vibe accelerator pedal from my Iowa zip code and got 3 hits. Not many 2010's out there.
Searching for 2009-2010 gets many more.
I thought 2010's were leftover 2009's so both may work?
Give it a shot and let us know.
