Description of the problem | I was making a left turn from "stop light" at 10 mph when i pressed the throttle just a little to proceed with a safe turn, the car started accelerating quickly and i lost control of the car and end up hitting the light pole. But before all that my buddy who happens to be a certified "nissan" mechanic have noticed that there was a weird noise on the engine. So yeah, this what happened with 2012 dodge challenger sxt .( i apologize for spelling and grammar ). P. S. The insurance company is refusing to pay for the damage unfortunately. |
