Consumer Description

While driving my foot will regularly get lodged/wedged below a piece of plastic trim adjacent to the accelerator. This delays or sometimes prevents me from easily letting up on the accelerator. While it can be dislodged with a little effort it requires me to completely reorient my foot. This is especially noticeable during "one pedal driving" where your foot does not need to be moved to the brake to decelerate. It does cause a delay in deceleration if only momentarily but requires effort and is at the very least distracting. Or in the worst case scenario it could delay deceleration long enough to cause an incident. The plastic trim protrudes about 1/4". The trim sits over a "carpeted" liner. This liner has no solid backing and can be pushed in and away from the accelerator leaving an even larger "lip" to overcome. This may not happen with all drivers but certainly with drivers that have larger feet or hold their feet in certain positions. Normal "single pedal driving" requires only very small adjustments in foot position. I believe this should be looked into.
