I thought we needed a place to post things that we've noted or fixed that bear on safety. I didn't find such a thread, but if I missed it this should be moved to that location.
SAFETY OBSERVATION: While I was working under the dash I noted a bare metal member that extends from the left side of the driver's foot well just under the lower edge of the dash. It has a raw unfinished edge that is very sharp, and on my 2011 it's rusting. In serious collisions people suffer lower extremity injuries, and this sharp piece of metal would do certain damage if the driver's foot or shin slammed into it. Recommend everyone round that edge at a minimum. It'll take but 5-10 minutes with whatever you've got handy - Dremel, hand file, sandpaper, etc. You might want to paint it, too.
