Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE ACCELERATES PERIODICALLY RESULTING IN CLOSE-CALL ACCIDENTS. THERE IS NO WARNING SIGN OF WHEN THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN. I REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP (HEYWARD ALLEN TOYOTA) WHERE I BROUGHT THE USED VEHICLE IN 2008. ONE OF THE SALESMEN DROVE WITH ME AROUND THE DEALERSHIP AND DECIDED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I LEARNED 24-HOURS AFTER THE PURCHASE THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING IT WHICH WAS NOT REVEALED. I AM CONCERNED THAT I AM PUTTING MY LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS IN DANGER. *TR
