NHTSA Complaint #10667447 — 2009 HYUNDAI GENESIS

"I WAS SUBJECTED TO A SUDDEN ACCELERATION LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING MY 2009 HYUNDAI GENESIS 4.6. I LEFT A FULL STOP AND SIGHTED ANOTHER CAR SPEEDING TOWARD A STOP SIGN COMING FROM MY LEFT. TO AVOID BEING BROADSIDED I SWERVED TO AVOID AND MY ACCELERATOR JAMMED. I SPED ACROSS THE STREET AND INTO A LANDSCAPED AREA. I HIT A TREE AT THAT POINT WHICH BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO A STOP. THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND I WAS WEARING A SEAT BELT. I SUSTAINED SOME IMPACT INJURIES THAT APPEAR TO BE OF A MINOR NATURE. A LAKE WAS LOCATED JUST BEYOND THE TREE AND I DELIBERATELY SELECTED THE MEDIUM SIZE TREE AS A TARGET. I WAS FORTUNATE. I SUSTAINED A BACK INJURY SOME YEARS AGO AND DRIVE WITH TWO FEET - ONE FOR THE ACCELERATOR AND ONE FOR THE BRAKE. THERE WAS THEREFORE NO CHANCE THAT MY FOOT SLIPPED FROM ONE PEDAL TO THE OTHER.
