Description of the problem | I have bunion pain that required me to get larger shoes. When i starting wearing these shoes i noticed that the toe of the shoe would come in contact with the bracket that attaches the brake pedal, interfering with me applying immediate pressure to the break pedal. The bracket is designed with a bend that overhangs the top of the brake pedal. This is extremely dangerous. I size shoe greater than a men's size 10 interferes with breaking. It almost caused a crash. I was in motion and the toe of my shoe would bend back on this bracket before my forefoot would come push far enough down on the pedal to brake. I examined several other car models and none of them has a bracket with this bend over hanging the brake pedal. Very dangerous. |
