 Description of the problemI bought this vehicle 05/27/2017. A test drive didn't reveal a brake/accelerator cross-over problem (a test drive around the block isn't meant to failure-test it). The next week my wife and i traveled from our home in wv to visit a daughter in mi. Driving on i-70 through columbus i got caught in heavy traffic; the driver ahead of us decelerated quickly and i had to jump on my brake to avoid a collision. U wittingly, my right foot also depressed the accelerator. Before impact the engine paused - yielding to the brake ( learned late that is a safety over-ride function) we were scared! I pulled out of the traffic as soon as possible to try to understand what had happened. With the engine stopped i repeated the scary operation and discovered that the fully depressed brake pad was level with the gas pedal. I corrected the potential repeat near disaster by braking with my left foot. On the way home (again in heavy traffic on i-70 i had another close call, with right foot hovering over the gas pedal i mashed on the brake with my left foot. My right foot was under the brake pedal. My left foot now forced my right foot to depress the gas pedal. The brake over-ride function saved us again . . . Barely! At home i compared the hr-v with my 2000 model cr-v. The cr-v has more total foot space and the pedals are separated such as to permit braking with my right foot. And when fully depressed the brake pedal is more than a half inch above the gas pedal. Believing there is a design flaw in the hr-v on saturday, june 10 i returned the hr-v to the dealer complaining that i am afraid of it; he could modify the brake or, that failing, they should take the dangerous vehicle back today, monday, june 19 the dealer possesses the hr-v that i fear and refuse to drive.
