 Description of the problemEarlier this year i purchased a 2015 gmc yukon denali. After driving it a short amount of time i realized the brake pedal is located significantly higher than the gas pedal. I've come to realize that the ~4inch gap is causing a severe safety hazard, especially in emergency braking situations. My foot, along with others in the post linked below, often gets caught in the large gap between the gas and the brake, especially when moving quickly. There have been many instances to date where the sole of my shoes has gotten stuck under the brake pedal, preventing me from stopping in time. I've narrowly avoided at least 5 accidents, because of this. Fearing that it is a matter of time before it results in a collision i reached out to gmc to see if there was a fix. They responded and said that the pedals are working as designed and said there was nothing that can be done. I'm very disappointed in their response, especially considering the clear safety hazard it creates. It is a large car, requiring more braking distance than most. Any impedance to the process should be taken seriously especially if it is a manufacturer design flaw such as this. Similar complaints have been voiced in this online consumer thread. One of many that i found reiterating the problem. Http://www. Tahoeyukonforum. Com/threads/gas-brake-pedal-distance. 67500/
