Consumer Description

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENTER A PLAZA BY MAKING A RIGHT TURN, I TRIED TO STEP ON THE BRAKES WHILE TURNING, BUT THE CAR JERKED INTO A SUDDEN ACCELERATION. SUDDENLY, THE CAR ACCELERATED BECAUSE THE BRAKES DIDN'T WORK. I CRASHED UP INTO THE CURB AND INTO A TREE AND INTO A PARKED CAR. WITH SUCH IMPACT AND FORCE, MY CAR PUSHED THE PARKED CAR TO THE NEXT PARKING LANE, THUS DAMAGING THE CAR PARKED NEXT TO THE FIRST CAR I HIT. THEREFORE, THE FIRST CAR I HIT WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THE SECOND CAR HAD SOME DENTS AND DAMAGES. MY CAR IS STILL IN THE BODY SHOP AND STILL NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *TR
