description: I PURCHASED A 2003 HONDA ACCORD IN NOVEMBER 2002. IN APRIL 2003, AS I REPORTED TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY ON THE DAY OF THE ACCIDENT, I WAS NOT IN MY CAR WHEN THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED. I WAS IN THE GROCERY STORE. A PAGE CAME OVER THE LOUDSPEAKER STATING THAT THE OWNER OF A GRAY HONDA PARKED IN THE SIDE PARKING LOT SHOULD COME TO THE MANAGER?S OFFICE. AS I WAS PARKED ON THE SIDE, I SPOKE TO THE MANAGER. THE MANAGER AND I WALKED OUT OF THE STORE TOGETHER AND I SAW THAT MY 2003 HONDA ACCORD WAS AT REST IN THE SIDE OF ANOTHER CAR. THE DOOR WAS LOCKED, THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON. I HAD THE KEYS WITH ME IN THE GROCERY STORE. NOT KNOWING HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED, I FILED A POLICE REPORT ON THE THEORY SOMEONE MAY HAVE TRIED TO STEAL THE CAR AND ALSO TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER TO SEE IF IT WAS A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. THE DEALER COULD NOT "REPLICATE THE PROBLEM" AND AT NO POINT ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING IN 1999 - 2002 HONDA VEHICLES. THE ACCIDENT CAUSED MORE THAN $3,000 IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, COST ME MY DEDUCTIBLE,AND INITIATED A RAISE IN MY INSURANCE RATES OF 32% (WHICH AFTER MUCH TIME, INCONVENIENCE, AND $27.00, I APPEALED AND WON). SINCE THE ACCIDENT, THE SAME PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES. I HAVE THE KEYS IN MY HAND AND THE CAR IS NOT IN PARK. I DO NOT HAVE THE PAPER WORK WITH THE EACT DATE OF THE ACCIDENT SO I AM ENTERING THE "5TH" TO ALLOW ME TO FILE THE COMPLAINT. *AK
