Get some longer legs or move your seat forward (and move steering wheel forward). Mine is set just right for me.

^ Doesn't work if you're short. My knees will hit the dash before foot touches the dead pedal lol

Yeah, it is bad. I think the problem is just youthful inexperience. Hyundai did not hire the right drivers and test on the right tracks. The car has lots of little issues from that root cause. Not bad things, just things that the other mature car makers (in this class) have known for decades. I bet they fix it in the 3rd generation.

Try:- a couple of blocks of wood superglued together then glue to the existing dead pedal..
I cannot believe that with all the adding of winged badges & pimping people are doing to their "G"'s someone has to ask the Dead Pedal ?..................
Lucky these cars are not the early MG's, they would need a Forum just to open the bonnet (hood)..

It fits just perfect in my coupe but not in this car.
Go figure, Hyundai?

You guys must all be short people. I've seen a lot of complaints about the dead pedal's distance from the driver. From those posts you would think their foot is just kind of dangling out there in space while you're driving. That's the visual I get at least.

I'm 6'2" with shoes and find it just fine. My wife is 5'2" and also doesn't complain, but I only let her drive when I'm intoxicated so maybe I don't hear her complaints.

Here's my dead pedal, a hunk of 2x4 worked over a little, 4 screws, 2 coats of truck bed paint, it fits my 29" inseam leg just right.

I think WOWCool here has already patented that. ,-)

That's not bad. We have the same inseam so maybe you can make another one for a small fee .

I tried that but it restricted my foot operated parking brake! I cant push it sufficiently with that!
