Lump behind brake pedal. When I press on the brake pedal, the top of my foot (10.5 shoe size) presses against a lump which stops me from applying more pressure to the brake. To avoid this, I have to position my foot at an angle. Unfortunately, when I need to apply the brake in a hurry, the last thing I think about is the angle of my foot. This is a very dangerous design flaw and I was wondering if your Agency has come across this problem before. Thank you.
