description: WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN ALL THE SUDDEN IT ACCELERATED UP TO 40+MPH WITH OUR ME EVEN TOUCHING PEDAL... I ATTEMPTED TO HIT BRAKES BUT IT KEPT GOING AND SLAMMED INTO CURB ON PASSENGER SIDE.. NO BODY DAMAGE WAS DONE BUT I DESTROYED BOTH RIMS, TIRES ARE FLAT AND WHEELS ARE BENT WHICH I'M ASSUMING IS THE ALIGNMENT AND SUSPENSION... I JUST BOUGHT/FINANCED THIS CAR FROM A USED LOT ON 10-18-2014 AND NOW OWE FOR A CAR THAT'S PRETTY MUCH TOTALED... HOWEVER I DID NOTIFY THEM THAT NIGHT (5 HRS AFTER PURCHASE) THAT THE CAR WAS REVVING HIGH AND ACCELERATING AND HARD TO STOP. I ALSO TOOK VIDEO OF THIS... BUT I HAD TO WORK ALL WEEK AND DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO GO IN AND COMPLAIN ABOUT ISSUE.. THEN ON FRIDAY OCTOBER 24TH AFTER I GOT OFF WORK AND WAS ALMOST HOME.. THE CAR SPED UP AND I COULDN'T STOP IT HAD TO HIT CURB IN ORDER TO STOP CAR FROM DRIVING ME THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND INTO A CONCRETE WALL. AND NOW THE CAR IS PARKED IN MY COMPLEX, AND CAN'T BE DRIVEN.... I'M JUST EXTREMELY THANKFULL THAT MY WIFE AND NEWBORN WERE NOT WITH ME THIS TIME.. *TR
