Description of the problem | i was pulling into my driveway at 1 mile per hour and i put my foot on the brake to stop my car and it wouldn't stop! The engine revved up and my car went through my fence into my backyard. I tried in vain to stop my car, i kept pressing down on my brake, (5 times) with no success. I finally put my automatic transmission into park and it finally came to a stop. I was extremely shaken up since i thought i was going to die! I checked my car for damages, i noticed that my passenger side view mirror was damaged and there was other damage under my car. My car is only 3 months old and has 950 miles on it. I have been driving for over 30 years and i have never encountered anything like this. This happened on november 27, 2014, thanksgiving day at 10:00 am. The weather conditions were cloudy with a temperature of 34 degrees. |
