“To whom it concerns, back in october of 2013, I purchased a used, but very well kept, 2006 Ford Mustang Gt premium. After a year or so, I experienced a problem that has left me afraid to drive the car. While slowly pulling into a parking space to park my car, I brought the vehicle to a complete stop, about to shift into park, while my foot was still depressing the brake pedal, the engine began to throttle up overpowering the brakes causing the back wheels to spin and the car to move forward. …”

“I was driving the car on a familiar narrow winding road, at approximately 25 MPH, approaching a curve to the right, when it suddenly unintentionally accelerated. This sudden acceleration caused the car to plunge off of the side of the road, down a very steep bumpy hill several hundred feet before finally stopping. I was frantically applying the brakes, but they seemed noneffective. The car is totaled, there is property damage, I was charged with reckless operation, my back is injured. Now I am struggling to prove that none of this is my fault.”
