Consumer Description

ON SEP 17, 2009 AS I LEFT A GAS STATION THE LEXUS LS430 YEAR 2005 ACCELERATED AND I WAS ONLY ABLE TO AVOID THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME WAS TO SWERVE TO THE RIGHT AND JAMMED OF THE BRAKE WITH BOTH FEET. UNKNOWINGLY I RAN INTO A TELEPHONE GUY WIRE AND THE ONLY DAMAGE WAS SUPERFICIAL ($3300.00) TO THE RIGHT FRONT LIGHT AND BUMPER. FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT COULD HAVE POSSIBLY GONE WRONG. I NOTICE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL APPEARS TO MOMENTARILY STICK. USAA FIXED THE AUTO AND THOUGH I WONDERED WHAT HAD HAPPENED I DID NOT REPORT THE ACCIDENT UNTIL NOW. *TR
