“The contact owns a 1998 Honda crv. The contact was reversing out of her driveway and when shifting to drive, the vehicle abnormally accelerated without driver intent. During the failure, the contact's foot remained firm on the brake pedal but the vehicle would not stop. The vehicle crashed through a stop sign and proceeded to crash into a mailbox and then a nearby tree, knocking it down before coming to a stop. The air bags deployed and the owner sustained lacerations and bruises to the mouth. The ambulance and police responded to the crash. A police report was filed. …”
