Who else hates the hump under the gas pedal?
I do, when I am wearing my thin sneaks that I love for driving I can always feel that stupid hump under my foot.

Why oh why is it there?

It always seems to be rubbing on the right side edge of the base of my shoe. I wear wide Etnies skating shoes with a pretty flat/squared soul to them so maybe that is why?

I don't remember running into any bump by the accelerator. Now, I'll have to look before my afternoon drive. Bet it starts to bother me! Oh well, thanks OP!

I think you need to be wearing ballet slippers to notice it.

I drive in Flip Flops or barefoot as long as the weather is warm, so if you hold your food the right way it bothers your heal.

Its a little hump where your heel should rest and pivot under the gas pedal, actually a great feature (IMO) as it almost holds your foot in place during hard turns and bumpy roads.

Try moving your seat back a bit.

WTF, i'm headed down to the garage right now. This is so weird, never noticed it before. They're will probably be a recall for a grinder fix on that soon.
