No comment from Ford officials yet, but the Freepers are reporting 19,140 Ford SVT Cobras (and no, guys, that's not quite "nearly 20,000") are being recalled to fix a reported carpeting malfunction. Don't laugh, it's all about accelerator pedals getting stuck and causing havoc on the nation's highways. The antidote to the Cobra's sting? A bracket must be installed over the cutout in the carpet behind the pedal to keep the go-button from getting caught in the "stun" position.
