Owner report 10573815 · 2014-03-20 (March 20, 2014)
I RENTED THIS CAR FOR 1 WEEK, WHEN I WOULD GO TO APPLY THE BRAKE MY FOOT WOULD SLIP OFF OF THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS WOULD HAPPEN TO ME EVERY 4TH OR 5TH TIME I WENT TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I HAVE NEVER HAD TO BE SO CAREFUL IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN, I'M 58 YEARS OLD AND KNOW HOW TO DRIVE..THE PEDAL IS QUITE SMALL AND MAYBE AT THE WRONG POSITION FOR SAFE APPLICATION. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN. *TR

STRENGTH? VULNERABLE LOCATION? *TR
