Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While driving my 2007 lexus es 350 on a very busy p'way the vehicle accelerated on its own. the car just took off. i applied the brakes once, then again and again i had my foot on the brake pedal all the way to the floor and the car did not slow down. it was a horror. i had no control of the speed and ultimately caused a six car collision. people including myself were hurt and hospitalized. the purpose of my purchasing this vehicle was due to the 5 star rating and safety. after researching i found too many other complaints of this nature. the vehicle is much to dangerous and should h be recalled. very disappointed an its a miracle i'm alive. *nm
