Consumer Description

ON EXITING FROM A BELTWAY ON TO A RAMP AND APPLYING THE BRAKES TO SLOW THE CAR, IT ACCELERATED THE CAR AND AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, IT SPED UP FURTHER. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND AFTER GOING VERY FAST OVER SEVERAL CURBS AND THROUGH AN INTERSECTION I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR ALONG SIDE OF ANOTHER CURB. THIS DAMAGED THE RIGHT FENDER AND ACTIVATED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. ALL OF THE TIRES WERE FLATTENED AND THE FRAME BENT, SO THE CAR COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE EVENT WAS QUITE FRIGHTENING AND FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO CARS IN THE ROAD OR INTERSECTION AND THE CAR STOPPED BEFORE HITTING ANY STRUCTURE. I WAS ALONE AND NOT INJURED. I HAD THE CAR INSPECTED DURING THE PAST YEAR, SINCE IT HAD ACCELERATED A FEW TIMES AFTER I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR AND APPLIED THE BRAKES. *TR
