NHTSA complaint: 2010 LEXUS RX350 — VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
IN A 2010 LEXUS RX 350 MY GRANDMOTHER WAS A PASSENGER IN WHICH THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP WAITING FOR AN APARTMENT COMPLEX SECURITY GATE TO OPEN. THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO SPEEDS ABOVE 60 MPH. THE VEHICLE CRASHED THROUGH TWO APARTMENT COMPLEX SECURITY GATES, WENT AIRBORNE OVER A BUSY STREET AND CAME TO REST AGAINST THE SIDE OF A BUILDING. TO OUR HORROR, MY GRANDMOTHER PERISHED IN THE ACCIDENT. WE ARE AWAITING THE INFORMATION FROM THE BLACK BOX. I HESITATE SO SAY TOO MUCH BECAUSE WE ARE STILL IN THE DECISION MAKING PROCESS OF HOW/IF TO PROCEED REGARDING LITIGATION. DO NOT PURCHASE, DRIVE OR RIDE IN ONE OF THESE VEHICLES. *TR
