	The driver's side floor mat pulled away from the anchor plug and keeps moving toward the gas and break peddles. i was told this was not covered under my warranty. i have not experienced any failures but because of talk of such a condition causing interference with a gas or break peddle i had to purchase an entire set of new mats. i still have the old mat.
