Consumer Description
AS I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AT MY HAIRDRESSER'S (PART OF A STRIP MALL) AND HAD ALMOST REACHED THE CEMENT PARKING STOP, MY CAR SUDDENLY LURCHED FORWARD, JUMPED THE CURB, AND CRASHED INTO THE GLASS STOREFRONT BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO STOP. IT FELT AS IF THE CAR HAD SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. LUCKILY, THE STOREFRONT WAS VACANT, SO NO ONE WAS INJURED, INCLUDING MYSELF, BUT THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE STOREFRONT AND MY VEHICLE.
