Consumer Description

SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY I HAVE HAD ABOUT A DOZEN INCIDENTS WHERE UPON FULLY DEPRESSING THE BRAKE THE GAS PEDAL WAS ALSO PRESSED ACCELERATING THE CAR. THE MOST FRIEGHTENING TIME WAS ON THE 12TH. WHERE THE CAR SHOT OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND I HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. IT IS MORE LIKELY TO HAPPEN WHEN WEARING MORE BULKY SHOES. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL ARE IMPROPERLY LOCATED WITH RESPECT TO EACH OTHER. I HAVE DRIVEN MANY CARS OVER MY LIFETIME AND THIS IS THE ONLY CAR THAT HAS PRESENTED THIS PROBLEM. I INTEND TO BRING THIS PROBLEM TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AS WELL AS CHRYSLER. I HAVE RESEARCHED SEVERAL OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS.
