Description of the problem | I own a 2004 toyota camry. I have had two accidents in it. Both times the car failed to brake but accelerated instead. No one believed me that the accelerator peddle stuck instead of braking. My insurance paid for repair both times (except for the $500 deductibles). However, as a result my insurance carrier of 15 years dropped me and i was forced to take out insurance that cost me more than three times as much for coverage. I believe the accelerator peddle stuck but the 2004 model is not included in the call back. Do i have any grounds for pursuing this? |
