“Parking brake assembly managed to bind between axle and brake rotor causing catastrophic failure. Right rear wheel locked up while driving very nearly causing a crash. Photo is from investigation”
NHTSA complaint #11234979, filed 2019-07, 60,000 miles“Brake and accelerator pedal placements and operation are dangerous.

A boot or wide shoe can overhang the edge of the brake pedal and engage the accelerator before braking becomes effective.
