Consumer Description

MY WIFE AND I WERE PREPARING TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE, OUTSIDE OF AN APPLEBEE'S RESTAURANT. WHEN SHE TAPPED ON THE GAS PADDLE TO PULL INTO THE PARKING SPACE, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD EXTREMELY FAST, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JUMP THE CURB. HERE IMMEDIATE REACTION WAS PRESSING THE BRAKE, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP UNTIL IT CRASHED INTO THE RESTAURANT. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NOT ANY CIVILIANS WALKING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY PERSON THAT WAS INJURED IS MY WIFE. THE LANDSCAPE AND THE BUILDING WAS DAMAGED; ALONG WITH OUR VEHICLE. OVER $7,500 DOLLARS WORTH OF DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. *TR
