What the ministry says is wrong
運転者席フロアマットにおいて、アクセルストッパ部の厚みが薄いため、アクセルペダルの全開操作を繰り返し行うと、ペダル下端部が当該ストッパ部と干渉し、フロアマットに穴があく場合がある。そのため、最悪の場合、アクセルペダルが穴に引っかかり、エンジン回転が下がらなくなるおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、フロアマットを対策品と交換する。The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.
