Description of the problem	I was driving 75 miles per hour on a busy highway in holiday ski traffic and the panel just above the brake and gas petal fell down and blocked my access to the break petal and limited my ability to move my foot off the gas petal. I was able to gain control of the car, while driving at a high speed in the left lane by yanking the panel off my feet and slowing down to exit the highway. I stopped the car, put the panel back in it's place and secured it with duck tape. I purchased this band new car on 12/30/16 and this happened on 2/17/17.
