Any 2007 new cars good for short people?

Question:
Someone asked a similar question but did not get any good answers. My wife is also 4'10" and she needs excellent visibility from all directions. The toughest challenge is that she can never put her heel on the floor while driving. Of course she doesn't want to sit too close to the steering wheel either. She is currently driving a Subaru Forester but she has to sit very close to the steering wheel, which we thought could be dangerous in case the airbag deploys. According to the other gentleman's similar question, an extension paddle would cause some safety concerns. Do you happen to know any year 2007 cars that fit these requirements for short people? Thanks ahead for your valuable answers.

The front seat gets real close to the steering wheel. aaaannd!! The air bag control module monitors the front seat position. For those of you that do sit close to the steering wheel. The airbag control module assumes a different deployment strategy for your safety.
