After the big mess that was the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/toyota_recall/guide">Toyota recall</a>, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is taking quick action when any reports of accelerator pedal entrapment are reported. Case in point: The 2010 <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/fusion">Ford Fusion</a> and <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/milan">Mercury Milan</a> are being investigated after NHTSA received only three instances of floor mats hindering the gas pedal's movement. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?<br />
<br />
A grand total of 249,301 cars are being investigated over this potential problem with Ford's all-weather floor mats, and we'll have more details as they arise. Here's hoping we don't have to relive the Toyota debaccle all over again.<br />
