| While lifting off from full acceleration, the throttle pedal had been fully depressed, the right side toe area of my right shoe ( a tennis shoe) became wedged between the throttle pedal and the sharply curved right side panel of the foot box, the result was this was stopping the car from decelerating as i wanted it to do. in order to release my foot i had to fully depress the accelerator pedal and then rotate my right for counter clockwise so that when i released the pedal the toe area of my shoe would not become trapped again. i looked at the foot box area and the side plastic panel has an very abrupt curve shape that acts as a trap if you happen to rotate your foot to the right under full throttle acceleration. this was a chevrolet malibu 2012 rental car from avis. *tr | |||

| My wife was driving east down hwy-40 toward salina, ks. she had the cruise control set on 60 mph. she began to have a epileptic seizure (she was cleared by her doctor to drive prior to this incident) at that point the car began to slowly drift of to the right side of the road. the car drove over a culver, the rear driver side of the car struck at concrete form and sent the car rolling of into a field the car rolled four times. after the fourth roll the car rolled back on to its wheels and continued to drive due to the cruise control still being engaged and drove 100ft before coming to rest once it struck a concrete fence post. at no time did any of the air bags deploy nor did the cruise control disengage. the vehicle has a crash response system threw on-star, at no time did the crash response activate. this information was provided to me via the saline county sheriffs. my wife only suffered minor cuts and bruises. *tr | |||
