This would cause the carpet and center console trim panel to be slightly closer to the accelerator pedal than originally intended.  As a result, the driver may shift his/her foot slightly to the left of the designed position and, when transferring the foot from the accelerator to the brake pedal, may inadvertently contact the side of the brake pedal.  This could cause a delay in brake pedal application, which could increase stopping distance, possibly causing a crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will remove the carpet padding and replace the left-side console trim panel.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"12S34","part_number":null,"units":2193,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Freins","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, le capitonnage du tapis au niveau des pieds du conducteur pourrait avoir été mal posé pendant le montage du véhicule. À cause de cela, le tapis et le panneau de garniture de la console centrale seraient légèrement plus près de l'accélérateur que prévu. En conséquence, le conducteur pourrait déplacer son pied légèrement vers la gauche de la position prévue et, en transférant son pied de l'accélérateur à la pédale de freinage, il pourrait toucher par erreur au côté de la pédale de freinage. Cela pourrait retarder l'enfoncement de la pédale de freinage, ce qui pourrait augmenter la distance de freinage et causer un accident, endommager des biens matériels ou blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront enlever le capitonnage du tapis et remplacer le panneau de garniture de la console de gauche."},"vehicles":[{"year":2013,"make":"FORD","model":"ESCAPE","vehicle_id":"2013_ford_escape","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2012197"}
