2007 Hyundai SANTA FE Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	While attempting to accelerate on an interstate to pass a vehicle, the accelerator pedal became stuck and the vehicle quickly sped up to 80 mph in a matter of seconds. Thankfully due to recent accelerator issues/recalls for other manufactures, i was able to shift the vehicle into neutral. The engine was pegged at max rpms while i frantically tried to get over through the lanes with the car in neutral. With three children aboard, this was a very harrowing experience. I was ultimately able to reach down, grab the accelerator pedal, and yank it back. After doing this, it again drove normally. I immediately looked at the pedal, floor mat, and carpet once arriving home. It is clearly obvious that the floor carpet itself (not the mat, the actual vehicle's carpeting) just under the pedal has hardened and developed a bulge such that the pedal will get stuck in it if depressed to far. This was brought to the immediate attention of the hyundai dealership who indicated the warranty was no longer valid as the vehicle was past 60k miles (75k), and a call placed to hyundai usa again yielded the same results, that the owner would need to pay $1400 to replace the flooring. There is clearly a design flaw in the floor carpet and raised section directly under the accelerator pedal that lead to this unintended acceleration, putting my safety at risk, and hyundai is willing to hide behind the warranty to avoid keeping its once loyal customer safe.
