Complaint on my 2000 ford mustang coupe(orginal owner ). Vehicle has problems relating to the position of the carpet around the accelerator pedal. After minimal use of the vehicle ( 5000 miles or around 3-5 months of use) a large hole developed on the right side of the accelerator pedal. If the accelerator is depressed fully or almost fully the side of your shoe can catch on the hole long enough to pose a saftey hazard of not being able to take your foot immeadatly off the accelerator pedal.
