“I was resetting the oil change light on a 2009 Dodge RAM 2500 you have to depress the gas pedal to the floor several times the gas pedal stuck to the floor when the aftermarket floor mat slid slightly forward and the very thick portion around the outside of the mat caught the bottom edge of the pedal.I work at a dealership and it was in a customer truck while it was not running so no damage was done but it could have caused an accident so I just wanted to report it so that you are aware. Possibly mats should be anchored to the floor.”
