description: I BOUGHT A NEW HONDA CRV 2014 MODEL ON 10/04/2013. ON 10/24/2013, I WORE FLIP FLOPS WHILE GOING TO PICK UP MY SON FROM THE SCHOOL, WHICH IS 5 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOME. MY LEG GOT STUCK AND I COULDN'T MOVE MY LEG FROM GAS PEDAL TO APPLY BRAKES, AS I ENTERED THE SCHOOL PREMISES. CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE AS MY FLIP FLOP GOT STUCK IN THE GROOVE BETWEEN PLASTIC AND METAL TRIM NEXT TO THE GAS PEDAL. I SWERVE OF THE ROAD AND HIT A TREE TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I THINK THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE WAY THE TRIM IS DESIGNED IN HONDA CRV 2014 MODELS. IF SOMEONE WEARING A FLIP FLOP?S WHILE DRIVING, IT CAN GET STUCK IN THE TRIM AND CAUSE FATAL ACCIDENTS. I DIDN?T SEE THIS ISSUE IN OLDER MODEL YEARS OF CRV. MY FAMILY IS TRAUMATIZED BY THE ACCIDENT AND VERY SCARED TO SIT OR TRAVEL IN THE CAR. I WAS FORTUNATE TO COME OUT OF IT WITHOUT ANY MAJOR INJURIES BUT THIS MAY NOT BE THE CASE FOR OTHERS. *TR
