The hazard

On certain vehicles, the accelerator pedal stopper may be bent when excessive downward force is applied after the pedal has contacted the stopper. In the worst case, the edge of the pedal can be caught and held down by the bent stopper. This could result in loss of vehicle control and a crash without prior warning. Correction: A support will be installed to prevent the stopper from bending.
