Abstract
A vehicle pedal device includes a hollow pedal and a pin. The pin extends through a first hole and a second hole formed in the hollow pedal. The first hole is formed to have an inner diameter that corresponds to an outer diameter of the pin. The second hole includes an inner surface that includes a contact surface. The contact surface is configured to receive a reaction force from the pin when a user depresses the hollow pedal, thereby aligning a location of a rear end of the pin with a location of a rear end of an inner peripheral surface of the first hole in a front-rear direction of a vehicle. The second hole defines a space inside, the space being located frontward in the front-rear direction of the vehicle from the pin extending through the second hole.
