Description of the problem	On dec. 2, 2014, i was entering a walgreen's parking lot in my leased 2014 lexus is 250, which i had owned for only 4 months with 1740 miles. Moving at 5mph or less, i turned the wheel to enter a parking space, when the car suddenly accelerated and took off. I pressed the brakes to the floor and nothing happened. The car jumped up over a planted median filled with bushes, trees and a phone pole. The front tires became lodged in mud and that stopped the car. I missed the telephone pole by less than 1 foot. Luckily, i had an individual witness the entire episode. I telephoned lexus emergency services and lexus customer relations immediately. The car had to be removed from the median by a tow company and was taken to the dealership where purchased. After examining the car from dec. 3-dec. 10, the dealership claims there is body damage but no mechanical problem with the car. The dealer called on dec. 10 saying the car was ready to be picked up. I noted inaccurate data in the service report from what i told the service manager originally, and i was given no information as to follow-up on this matter. I was simply told that lexus corporate had been out to see the underside damage to the vehicle.(front bumper, paint, cracks on base of bumper), and that i would hear from them in 10 days. I called lexus corporate and was told that the matter is now in the legal dept. And that it would be far more than 10 days for a response. Rather, i could expect a call in 4/6 weeks or longer. I am now driving a leased vehicle that i am very scared to operate, not knowing when a similar incident could occur where i could be killed or injure or kill someone else. Lexus, particularly the dealership, appears to be wanting to distance themselves as far from possible from finding a suitable resolution.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
