While waiting in line for car inspection, had the car in neutral with the hand brake on, I then put the car in drive and suddenly it lunged forward. Trying not to hit other cars, but could not stop the car. Finally I hit a guard rail, bounced off a curb and hit a truck and finally smashed into a concrete wall. Air bags did not deploy.

Reported at 114,000 miles, February 2006 Crash

(1) I was driving home and my 95' acura integra 4 door gsr died on the highway (2)if I tried to start the car, it would start then die as I let the key go. I found that if I held the key close to III then the engine would stay on. I got home and took apart the ignition harness and noticed that there was a spot where the contact point was pitted. That's when I figured the ignition harness switching mechanism (by the key ignition cylinder) was not getting good contact.
