Description of the problem | On july 31, 2017 in my 2014 ford edge i slowed down to turn right into a parking space at an elementary school, and all of a sudden the car took flight over the curb and sped into the woods. Scared and shaken i was trapped in the car with trees blocking the front doors. I was able to get out of the car by climbing into the backseat where i was able to open the door. The car was not drivable and had to be towed. This acceleration is very scary and i will not feel comfortable driving this car again! What if children would have been in the way? |
