Description of the problem | I was doing a parallel parking on a quiet city street. I was doing 3 or less miles per hour when suddenly my brakes failed and my car continued to go! It ran into the sidewalk and some bushes. I was horrified not being in control anymore. I turned off the engine with my key. The front of my car has been damaged a lot. It is at a mechanic and bodywork shop. I would like to be able to sue the maker of my car. |
