 Description of the problemThis complaint relates to the vehicle i lease, but i suspect it applies to all toyota rav4 models of this same design vintage, and may also apply to other toyota models. The basic problem, as shown in the annotated photo available at http://jrgspace. Homestead. Com/rav4_engineering_design_fail__1. Jpg is the inadequate spacing between the accelerator and brake pedals, which allows even relatively small shoes to simultaneously depress both pedals during "urgent", or even "normal" braking situations. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the point (or plane) at which effective braking is achieved is at least 1/2" below or "beyond" the plane of the accelerator pedal, almost guaranteeing the application of power during braking. This is an incredible engineering design failure and will almost assuredly lead to accidents if it has not already done so, as i have narrowly avoided several accidents myself already where this interference was a factor. I consider this an extremely hazardous condition and should be addressed by the nhtsa as a top priority.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
  • What is Defect?

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
