问：当我按下刹车踏板时，汽车会加速为什么会发生这种情况？

多年来，其他汽车已经出现了好几次。据说这是1980年代奥迪和2000年代的丰田发生的。在每种情况下，在进行调查时，通常归结为踏板周围地板空间的设计差，可以轻松按下错误的踏板。我自己用丰田苔原（Toyota Tundra）自己体验了它，因为当我按下刹车踏板时，我会意外与靴子的侧面接合。结果令人震惊。With the car parked, look at the floor space around the pedals and try placing your foot on the brake, (do it with the engine running so the brake pedal will be at the height it is while the car is moving) see if it’s possible that you are engaging the accelerator with any part of your shoe at the same time. If you decide that it is impossible that you are making the mistake, you need to take the car to the dealer and make a big deal of it. You might need to contact the NHTSA and alert them to the problem. If it turns out that other people are having this issue they will probably want to initiate a recall.
