“This is a problem with a modification--electronic hand controls provided by emc co in louisiana. This problem has happened several times: they are electronic hand controls that work with the brake and accelerator. Three times the controls have failed to work so that either the accelerator has been stuck or the brakes have not worked. From what I understand doing a little investigation of my own, this is not an isolated problem, but I can find no information on the www regarding it. I hope you'll look into it.”
