Consumer Description

I WAS COMING DOWN A DRIVEWAY FROM A STORE AND I ATTEMPTED TO STOP BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES AND MY DURANGO LUNGED FORWARD TOWARDS THE OTHER VEHICLE AND IT DID IT TWICE BUT THE SECOND TIME I HAD BOTH MY FEET ON THE BRAKES AND I HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE.I HAVE NEW TIRES AND BRAKES AND ALSO THE PAVEMENT WAS WET BUT IT DID NOT SLIDE. IT WAS LIKE THE ACCELERATOR STUCK OR SOMETHING. MY WORRY IS THAT I COULD HIT A PEDESTRIAN NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS. I HAD NO DAMAGE TO MY DURANGO BUT THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE OTHER VEHICLE. THIS IS THE FIRST ACCIDENT I'VE HAD IN YEARS AND I HAD A GOOD DRIVING RECORD UNTIL NOW. *TR
