Consumer Description

ON DECEMBER 14,2012 I WAS TRAVELING NORTH UP A HILL AT 35 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THEY CAR ACCELERATED TO 55 MPH. I TRIED TO STOP BUT THE CARS TIRES SCREECHED AND HIT THE LADIES CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE FRONT END IS TOAST. I HAVE TO HAVE THE CAR EXAMINED AND FIND OUT WHY IT ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL AND DID NOT STOP. THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS. *TR
