foot hangs up when changing pedals
anyone else have an issue with your foot or shoe hanging under a duct when changing pedals? stopped my heart a few times. i took my shoe and it catches behind an air duct when pedaling back and forth. i was wondering if it is just me. this is an auto transmission 2ssrs.

You're not supposed to change pedals when you're driving.

crust
I can only WISH that certain rumor were true, and i got used to the problem soon enough, but when i drive something else, i notice i try to avoid the duct even when its not there in the other car. i was just curious. it scared the crust off my butt a couple of times i couldnt get to the brake as fast as i wanted. i find it funny nobody else having this issue.

Yup...
I wear a size 12 shoe and has happened more than once.
(And no, putting the seat back further doesn't do a thing...)

Maybe try a pair of shoes from the 21st century, and not the greaser pointy "cockroach killers" from West Side Story................just saying.
God bless this is your one problem with your car. I suggest you open a file/case # with the trolling customer service clowns that lurk around here. God knows they have nothing better to do. |

My feet used to do this on a vette I had - I trimmed the duct at an angle to the floor to eliminate that. I trimmed it in about 3/4 of an inch on the bottom got the same air just not that corner hanging there to catch my shoe.

Never had this problem and I wear a size 12. Try "pedaling" with just the ball of your foot... instead of the whole thing.

I'll probably offend you
|
The only way this should be happening is if you use your entire foot to engage any of the pedals, in which case
