Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I believe that unintended acceleration caused my one vehicle accident. I was reversing slowly out of a steep driveway. Once out of the driveway, I put my foot on the brake so that I could switch gear in to drive. When I put my foot on brake, the car accelerated backwards, and I couldn't control it. The brake wouldn't work. The acceleration was so fast, that what stopped me was hitting a horse fence across the street. I was going so fast, that I ended up going airborne, and only damaged the top of the horse fence. My front part of my car then fell forward and broke the tie rod in half. …”
