NHTSA Complaint #10968425 — 2017 TOYOTA COROLLA

ON 3/22/17 I WAS DRIVING AN ENTERPRISE RENTAL CAR INTO AN APARTMENT COMPLEX AND PULLED IN FRONT OF THE LEASING OFFICE TO PARK. WHILE STEPPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE CAR DID NOT STOP AND IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED CAUSING THE CAR TO CRASH INTO THE PILLARS OF THE LEASING OFFICE WITH FORCE. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND MY PASSENGER AND I HAD TO CRAWL OUT OF THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR TO ESCAPE THE VEHICLE. WE ARE LUCKY TO BE ALIVE AND ESCAPE WITH MINOR INJURIES. THERE ARE DRAG SKID MARKS ON THE GROUND FROM THE REAR WHEELS. UPON COLLISION THE ENGINE SHUT OFF EVEN THOUGH THE KEY WAS IN THE RUN POSITION..
