| Description of the problem | On my way to tufts medical in boston mass. I paid the last toll in and not 200 ft from the toll booth, my car stopped. My rav4 shut down and rolled back towards the toll booth (towards oncoming traffic). The car would not stop despite lifting the emergency brake. After turning the car off, it slowly stopped but, did continue to roll. Mass state troopers arrived in about 5-7 minutes and placed his vehicle so that it would not roll into anyone. My car was towed back to the dealer while i rented a car to get back to western mass. The dealer has looked at the car 3 different times and found nothing. I can no longer transport my elderly mother to her appointments in boston without renting a car. |
