Description of the problem | I was driving my 2010 edge in stop and go traffic. The cars in front of me stoped suddenly so i slammed on my brakes. My brake pedal went all the way to the floor without stopping my vehicle. ( all of this is happening in seconds traveling about two to three car lengths)i released my foot and the brake pedal returned to a normal position. I pressed the brakes again and the pedal traveled all the way to the floorboard again without stopping my vehicle. I released pressure again and this time the pedal shot back hitting my foot with such force that it caused a lisfranc dislocation and severe bone bruising to my right foot. (i lost my job and will be unable to work for at least six months, if i am able to regain full function due to this accident .)through the pain i depressed the brakes a third time and they went to the floor again, not stopping my vehicle and resulting in my vehicle crashing into the vehicle in front of me at a relatively slow speed. The airbags did not deploy. |
