| Description of the problem | On august 11, 2007, my family experienced a head on collision. We were driving a 2007 toyota sienna. My husband was driving and died at the scene. The investigation never found any reason for the cause of the accident. My husband crossed the center line while going round a slight curve. He was 47, poor weather was not issue. If the accelerator on the sienna malfunctioned and did not respond, that could definitely have been a factor. Our van had less than 3000 miles on it. We purchased in may 11, 2007. The autopsy for my husband came back negative for any medical condition concern. Please investigate our accident report and be sure the safety and reliability of sienna's is sound.
