Hi All,
I recently purchased a 2012 Forester. I have only ever bought mnual cars and my replacement Forester is the manual X version.
Just above the clutch pedal is a metal bracket, which looks like it should be used to heol the pedal in place during the cars assembly stage.
The issue I have is that it catches your foot when you release the clutch.
I took it to a Subaru Service Centre and they initially told me that they did not know why it was there. Then after several minutes one of the managers said that he remembered it was a saftey feature to stop your foot going up into the dash area......?:?:?

It looks to me like a missed item that shoud have been removed prior to sale. I have checked the area above the clutch and there is a lot more danger getting your foot caught above the accelerator which does not have anything above it....

Has anyone else run into this issue or can anyone shed some light on it?
