Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving from a parking slot at carl's jr., my car suddenly accelerated with a loud engine roar, to approximately 80-90 MPH, jumped over a curb over an island, run through three parking slots, hit another curb and hit a palm tree-which finally stopped my car- at a distance of about 50-60 feet from my parked position. I was stepping on the brakes for the whole 5-6 seconds until my car hit the palm tree. The brake just did not work. Mistakenly stepping on the accelerator, is out of the question--with all the jarring and swaying--any idiot will step on the brake, which I did. …”
