1. my car is 2007 Toyota Matrix, before my first accident I took my car twice to be inspected by the dealer shop at fitszgerald because I had two brake failures while riding to my house and both times they blamed on the floor mats, and the second they gave me a report saying that they were unable to find a failure on the brakes after inspecting it for 96mile drive, they found nothing and put on the report that the vehicle had no problems. I was driving on the highway during a high traffic, the vehicles in front of me slowed down, I stooped then when the vehicles in front started to move I let go of the breaks and suddenly the car went out of control and hit the car twice while I was pressing the breaks. 2 this happens not often, this happens when I put the car on park or I slow down, usually when I apply the breaks. I am afraid because they can't find anything wrong with it or that they refuse to help me. For this even my premium car insurance went 200% 3 nothing can be done because they don't know what's wrong, I am at a loss because is difficult for me to find any help.
