Gas/Break pedals Sign In

Hi,
I've been looking to buy a used vehicle and found a disturbing problem with several 2008 vehicles I'm looking at.
EX. 2008 Chrysler Pacifica The break and gas pedals are at different heights causing my foot to catch on the side of the break pedal when my foot goes from the gas to the break. Is there any SAFE device I can afix to the top of the gas pedal so the heights are equal?

Thanks,

The pedals on that model are power adjustable . A quick look in the owners manual will describe how they function.

You'll eventually get used whatever you buy.

Hammer,

This particular model does not have the power pedals. In those others that do have the power pedals, both pedals move together so there is no advantage in either the high or low position.
Thanks for your reply.

I'm not the one that suggested the power pedals but it's pretty normal for them to be staggered. You'll get used to it quick.
