“The crash occurred at 2:50 PM on January 10, 2024 while pulling our 2021 Toyota Venza into a diagonal parking space on a slight upgrade.

As this was happening, the driver yelled, “I don’t know what’s happening.” The car then rebounded onto the sidewalk and was turned off quickly because of a gas smell.

The seatbelt warning chime was improperly triggered by a fault in Toyotas programming. A child briefly plugged their seatbelt into the 'wrong' receptacle in the rear seat. …”
