SERVICE BRAKES

this was a rental car. when starting to brake, my shoe caught on the foot well which interfered with my braking. this happened multiple times. there was an extra snow mat installed by the rental company, which i removed. after that it only happened once. the foot well is definitely not designed to allow proper transfer of a foot from accelerator to brake especially for bigger sized feet. the pedals on the model i was driving are not adjustable. i have seen one other similar complaint on the internet, that user removed the floor mat to resolve the problem
