MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE VICTIMS OF TOYOTA'S RECKLESS NEGLIGENCE. IN MAY 2006 I HAD A BRAND NEW NISSAN SENTRA AND I PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY ACROSS FROM MY APARTMENT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR ACCELERATED AND IT FELT LIKE IT WAS POSSESSED. IT SPED PROBABLY 70-80 MPH AND I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. LUCKILY, FOR ME THE CAR RAMMED INTO THE CONDO OF THE DRIVEWAY I PULLED IN. MY AIRBAGS POPPED OUT AND I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR WITH ONLY A CUT ON MY FOREHEAD. MY NEIGHBOR WITNESS THE WHOLE THING. WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME THEY LOOKED AT THE CAR AND SAID IT WAS A MIRACLE THAT I WAS ALIVE AND NOT BADLY HURT. I DID RESEARCH AND FOUND THE OTHERS WITH THE SAME CAR HAD EXPERIENCE THIS. I TRIED TO CONTACT NISSAN, I EVEN HIRED AN ATTORNEY. MY INSURANCE COMPANY SAID THE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. WELL, I KNOW THAT THIS CAR WAS DEFECTIVE AND IF NOT FOR THE CONDO I WOULD HAD DIED. NOW THAT THIS EVENT HAS HAPPENED WITH TOYOTA I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. MIND YOU I'M STILL PAYING FOR THE CAR THAT IS TOTALED. *TR
