1) no accident yet, but frequently the side of my right foot hits the accelerator while putting the brakes on; part of my large foot is on the brake - part lands on the accelerator. (I am 6' 1" tall). Dealer has said there is nothing that can be done about it. I do feel this represents a hazard to my car and occupants, as well as to others. My only solution is to get rid of the car to a short person. (the required date below is invalid and irrelevant.)
