 Description of the problemOn 9/24/14, while traveling home from a neighborhood park, i was hit by a truck on the driver side. I was going down a slight hill and was going to turn right at the intersection. I'm not sure exactly what happened prior to impact but my turn signal was on, i was going to turn right and i was breaking. Suddenly, i heard this loud crash, when i looked to my left, i saw my driver's side mirror being pushed into my door, then i saw the truck. My car did not stop. I was going apprx 15 to 25 miles per hour maybe, and again i was traveling slightly downhill and would have been making a turn. I think my car was continuing to move forward in the seconds before impact. Once i was hit, my car continued to move, seemingly faster. At that point i was very much aware that my car was not stopping and the breaks were not working. Amazingly, i was able to navigate the corner (without being hit by anyone coming from the opposite direction) and turn the car into a parking lot (with no control of the breaks). In front of me in the parking lot, which is not a big lot, my car continued heading in the direction of a building there. I could not stop the car and was forced to put it into park, hoping that would stop the car. It did. However, the airbags did not deploy. The police were called, a ticket was issued to me stating that i drove without due care and caution. My insurance and toyota hotline have been contacted. The process is just beginning and i will not know the full extent of the damages until the "black box" is inspected. This has been very upsetting and could have resulted in a much more serious outcome. I thought toyota's acceleration problems had been dealt with.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?
