NHTSA complaint: 1998 ISUZU RODEO — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGES
WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL IF MY FOOT IS NOT ALL THE WAY ON THE PEDAL , THE ACCELERATOR CAN BE PRESSED AT THE SAME TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE LAST OCCURENCE RESULTED IN A COLLISION. I BELIEVE THE CLOSENESS OF THE PEDALS CONTRIBUTES GREATLY TO THIS HAPPENING. I HAVE FOUND THAT WHEN I HAVE MY FOOT ON HALF OF THE BRAKE PEDAL AND DEPRESS FULLY, THE ACCELERATOR IS ENGAGED BY TOP OF MY FOOT. *AK
