“We were traveling out of our development at 17-20mph while approaching our exit gate the car jolted forward and accelerated at a rapid speed. My husband immediately stepped on the brake but the brake pedal became hard, the brake did not work. The car would not stop while pressing down on the brake. We crashed through the exit gate heading to the water, he then turned the wheel which also became difficult to turn as we headed into the brick wall . Hitting the wall, caused the car to come to a stop! …”
