Passat

  • 80,000 miles
The gas pedal got stuck under the floor mat on our 2001.5 VW Passat - while driving - when I pushed the pedal all the way to the floor. The car started speeding but I was able to control the speed and stop the car by braking. I will be trimming the floor mat so that will not happen again.
