A kickdown mechanism provides a tactile feedback to the foot of a user depressing a vehicle pedal. The kickdown mechanism has a case and a roller having a recess. The roller is engaged by movement of the pedal so as to cause the roller to travel linearly. A friction generating assembly is retained by the case and engages with the roller so as to provide a tactile feedback to the user. The friction generating assembly has a rod that is retained by the case. The rod is biased into the recess such that the pedal, when depressed, urges the roller from a first position in which the rod is located in the recess to a second position in which the rod is located outside the recess. |
