WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AT ABOUT 40 MPH ON THE ROAD, IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED . I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND THE CAR KEPT GOING AT THE ACCELERATED SPEED FOR ABOUT 3/4 MILE. IT FINALLY SLOWED ENOUGH FOR ME TO TURN OFF THE ROAD INTO A HOUSING COMPLEX. I THEN WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK. THE CAR KEPT IDLING AT THE SAME RATE EVEN WHILE IN PARK POSITION. SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD; THEREFORE, I GOT OUT AND WITHIN 1 MINUTE, IT WENT UP IN FLAMES. THE POLICE & FIRE TRUCK CAME AND PUT OUT THE FLAMES. THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS.

FEBRUARY 22, 2017 7:15PM : I WAS ON MY WAY TO PICK MY 3 CHILDREN UP AT MY PARENTS. I WAS GOING THE SPEED LIMIT 50MPH WITH MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER FOLLOWING BEHIND ME. A DEER JUMPED ONTO THE ROAD AND I SWERVED THE VEHICLE TO AVOID HITTING THE DEER. I SWERVED 3 TIMES BEFORE HITTING A CULVERT. UPON HITTING THE CULVERT, MY VEHICLE FLIPPED AND ALSO ROLLED INTO THE DITCH. ALTHOUGH I WALKED AWAY WITH A FEW SCRATCHES AND A BRUISE ON MY LEG, IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE. TWO DAYS LATER, I WENT TO THE IMPOUND TO GET MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS OUT OF MY VEHICLE. I REALIZED THE AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH THERE IS PLENTY OF DAMAGE DONE TO THE VEHICLE. I HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS TO SUPPORT MY COMPLAINT.
