Please pay attention to the two accidents that I have experienced. I purchased my Toyota Camry in 2003 and loved it. I have been driving for 57 years and never had an accident. On October 11, 2007, I drove up my daughter's driveway, came to a stop (my foot was on the brake) and was putting my car in park when it suddenly accelerated into and crashed thru the closed garage door! I finally came to a stop after crashing into the hot water heater and a work table, putting a big hole in the wall behind it. A cabinet fell on the driver's door and the broken garage door closed onto the rear of my car. Luckily I was not injured beyond bruising and stiffness. More importantly, I am relieved my grandson was not in the car with me, or worse, had not come into the garage when I honked for him. This happened in seconds and was terrifying. My foot was on the brake the entire time! two years later, on June 16, 2009, I drove into a jewelry store in a strip mall. I pulled slowly into a parking space. Again, my foot was on the brake as I was stopping. I attempted to put the car into park. It suddenly accelerated into a large concrete pillar, jumping the curb. Again, my foot was on the brake. This happened in a split second; my seat belt tightened and locked around my chest and throat. I jammed my thumb, hit my left knee on the steering column and was in immediate chest pain from the seat belt. My car was towed to my mechanic. I went to the emergency room and also saw my doctor. I suffered many deep contusions and it took six weeks for my chest and back to heal. I am still having neck and knee problems. This was a horribly frightening experience. What could have happened had that concrete pillar not stopped the car"?!! what if people had been on the sidewalk or just a couple of more feet and the car would have crashed through the glass front of the jewelry store. Two crashes--$11,000 damages I still feel very unsafe about my car. When will it happen again"
