Federal safety regulators are looking into reports of gas pedals that become stuck under floor mats of 2010 Ford Fusions and Mercury Milans.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received only three complaints of gas pedals getting trapped under unsecured all weather floor mats. There are no reports of injuries or crashes. But it is similar to the problem that led Toyota to recall several million vehicles last fall.

Safety officials say the investigation covers about 250,000 Fusions and Milans.
