Vehicle is a 1995 Subaru Legacy L wagon with auto. Trans. Gas pedal and brake pedal are too close together, and at the same height. One's foot can inadvertently apply both pedals at once, causing acceleration and braking simultaneously. Also, clearance between pedals and lower dash panel just above, is minimal. This can cause foot (especially in a winter boot) to jam in the limited space, resulting in difficulty lifting foot from a pedal. In an otherwise praiseworthy car, these flaws are an accident waiting to happen.

Car shakes and steering wheel vibrates when applying brakes. Gives sensation of inability to brake. Feeling of insecurity. Have taken to dealer on several occasions and the following have been done: Resurfaced front and back rotors at 17,002 miles. Replaced front and rear pads and front rotors and resurfaced rear rotors at 29,154 replaced rear rotors and resurfaced front rotors at 42,325. Now at about 53,000, front rotors need replacing again! a quick internet search found one reported failure of ABS in 2005 Legacy that potentially could have caused an accident. I am concerned and worried that this car could prove unsafe for my family if our brakes fail.
