| Description of the problem | I just filed a complaint to nhtsa (#10153679) at this website. I forgot to mention that i searched on the internet and found a similar accident happened in ny state. Jean m. Naples was driving a toyota matrix on route 287 northbound in harding and the car lost control and spun toward the left. She was treated at morristown memorial hospital. (if toyota wants to see the complaint #10153679, i would like to open it to them. I originally specified "non-disclosure" because i did not want the hassle of getting involved in an investigation, questionnaire, forms, and all that stuff!) *jb |
