I also find both feet uncomfortable during long rides, anyone else?

I don't seem to find them that bad, and I wear size 12 shoes. I have noticed in my two short days with my H3 is that my left leg is a little cramped in the footwell and have a hard time finding a good comfortable spot for it. (I'm 6'2" and long in the legs)

I drove an 800 miles round trip in a day and I'm 6'3, size 12m foot..The only thing that was cramping a little was my buttocks[sm=rolleyes.gif]

Hey all,

New to the forums and I just picked up my Slate Blue H3 a couple of weeks ago.
I had the gas/brake pedal problem as well, and after I poked around a bit I found that the carpet bulged out by the gas pedal (side of the tranny hump).
The dealer was notified and they put sown some adhesive which gave me ample clearance.
Might be worth poking around to see if any of you have the same issue.

Design Flaw that they should have caught, it's a pain. I bet they fix it for the 07 model, that I just read has the 3.7L V6. I suspect that fat footed folks (FFF's!) will cause a few accidents and GM wil be forced to do a fix and recall all 06 H3's. It's the only thing I dont like about my new H3.

I have an auto so I'm curious, how close is the clutch to the brake? It looks to me like the pedals on the auto are a carbon copy of a manual pedals minus the clutch. Most autos have the brake spaced more to the left and it's a wider pedal, maybe GM just kept the same template for all models and only added the clutch when needed?

Its the same inline 5 cyl. Bore has been punched out to make it a 3.7L engine. Its NOT a V6.


On topic: Yes the driver side foot well is tight.

I thnk the pedals could use a little adjustment. I purchased the WeatherTech Floor mats and find myself having problems with the gas peddle.
