Consumer Description

I WAS WAITING FOR ANOTHER CAR TO PULL OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT THE CARWASH. AS I INCHED FORWARD WITH MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTED ACCELERATING AND WHEN I BRAKED IT DIDN'T STOP. WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR ACCELERATING, I WAS ABLE TO STEER AWAY FROM THE CAR PULLING OUT. MY CAR STOPPED WHEN I HIT A ROCK ABOUT 18" HIGH ALONG THE DRIVEWAY. THE DAMAGE TO MY CAR IS $3,200.00. I'LL HAVE THE INVOICE WHEN I PICK THE CAR UP FROM THE REPAIR SHOP IN A DAY OR TWO. THE MILEAGE I'M SUBMITTING ISN'T EXACT SINCE I DON'T HAVE MY CAR TO LOOK AT THE ODOMETER.
