MY 2002 NISSAN FREONTIER PICKUP HAS SOME SERIOUS BBRAKE PEDAL AND GAS PEDAL ISSUES. THE BRAKE PEDAL IS TO CLOSE TO THE GAS PEDAL. IT IS SO EASY TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AT THE SAMETIME YOU PRESS THE BRAKE. SEVERAL PEOPLE HERE HAVE MADE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT HAS ALREADY CAUSED NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE THIS ASAP BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS KILLED!!!
