| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On dec. 23, 2006, around 11:20 am, i was driving at about 5 mph in a parking lot. as i made a slight turn to the left to straighten out, the car suddenly accelerated and hit a parked car. the brakes did not work, even when floored. the car would not stop until it pushed another car up onto the sidewalk and its wheels bumped up against the curb. the car was eventually stopped by turning off the engine using the key in the ignition. (taking my foot off the brake pedal seemed to make it go faster.) the weather was sunny, but the car had been parked outside in the rain the two previous days. i had not used the cruise control anytime recently before the incident. we have not had any problems with this car, although occasionally, the radio turn has turned itself on while we were driving. *nm |
