Description of the problem	I was traveling on interstate when vehicle drifted from right lane to left lane, unable to control - this discontinued, appx 4 - 5 miles later the vehicle drifted from right lane to left lane & hit shoulder. When brake vehicle went into spin & ended up crossing left & right lanes, ending on interstate roadside @ tree line. Damage to front driver's side - i am sore on left side (shoulder, lower back & left knee - also have pain across stomach i guess from seatbelt engaging. This was terrifying, and i am also afraid to drive this vehicle again. Accident occurred on thursday am, first chance to research friday night, i was appalled to learn that while toyota was aware of this issue never received first communication regarding possible danger. I could have been killed had there been traffic around me on the interstate, as was the case when the 1st drifing happened.
