Consumer Description

ABOUT 5:30PM ON THURSDAY EVENING (2/4/10), I WAS DRIVING HOME N ON SILVER LAKE BLVD & 36 ST. IT WAS LIGHTLY SNOWING, THE STREETS WERE WET AND SLIPPERY, AND I WAS DRIVING UNDER 15/MPH GOING DOWNHILL. AS I PRESSED THE BRAKES, THE CAR WENT FASTER, AND DID NOT STOP UNTIL I BADLY HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND WENT OVER THE CURB. MY CAR IS A 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA. ABOUT 2-3 MONTHS AGO, TOYOTA SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE BRAKES, MUCH BEFORE THE NATIONWIDE TOYOTA RECALL HIT THE MEDIA. AND NOW, EVEN AFTER I DID RECALL A FEW MONTHS AGO, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT SUCH A BRAKE-RELATED INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED TO ME EVER SINCE THE RECALL. I FEEL THAT THIS ACCIDENT IS RELATED TO ANOTHER BRAKE DEFECT OF THE NEWLY-REPLACED/ALTERED BRAKES, AND WOULD KINDLY ASK FOR IT TO BE FURTHER INVESTIGATED. *TR
