Consumer Description

ON THE EVENING ON AUGUST 30, 2013, MY WIFE AND I WERE INVOLVED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT DUE TO A SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEM WITH OUR 2002 TOYOTA CAMRY. I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED AROUND A CUL-DE-SAC WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF MY CONTROL AND CRASHED INTO A TREE. I PRESSED THE BRAKE A FEW TIMES BUT IT WAS INEFFECTIVE. THE CRASH DESTROYED THE CAR AND IS DETERMINED TO BE A "TOTAL LOSS." *TR
