| Description of the problem | Pulled into a handicap parking place, all of a sudden the car accelerated forward at a high speed. Knocking down the handicap sign and went through a store glass window. We sat there in shock not nothing what just happened. The police arrived and a said it must have been the gas pedal, they assume since i was a older person that i had stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake. I know i had my foot on the brake. I feel this is differently a recall problem. Nissan has had this problem since 2000 and no one has done anything about it. I have lost my license and my insurance over this. Please take this matter seriously! What if this was a school crosswalk and children were going across. I worked in the hospital for 47 years now it's time for me to travel and enjoy my retirement. I can't even go to the doctors or grocery stores. Please save our children and our community. The vehicle was in park at the time this happed. |
