Consumer Description

I WAS JUST ABOUT PARKED WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN. OVER THE CURB, THROUGH A WOOD FENCE AND INTO A CAMPING TRAILER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE. TOYOTA IS NOT THE ONLY COMPANY WITH THIS PROBLEM. CAR WAS TOWED AWAY AND I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS REPAIRABLE OR IF THE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL TOTAL IT.
