Consumer Description
While stopped at a red light, I stepped on brake and without warning, the car accelerated uncontrollably, at a high speed. It crashed into a parked vehicle and was a total loss. i had my 17 mos. old granddaughter in a rear facing carseat, in the rear passenger side. Luckily, the Upa Baby carseat protected her and she was not hurt, nor was anyone else. Airbags did not deploy. Now i have to get a new car which is very costly, using the little I will get from insurance payout. The car was well maintained with less than 50,000 miles without any other prior incidents. I do see that other motorists have had similar experiences with this make and model. It should be investigated further, in order to avoid serious injuries to others.
