I dropped my grandson at his mother's house. As I exited her driveway my car experienced sudden unintended acceleration. I could not stop the car and struck the house across the street.
Tl*the contact owns a 2001 hyundai elantra. While driving approximately 30 MPH, the brake pedal extended to the floor when it was depressed. The brakes were pumped several times before the vehicle came to a complete stop. A small amount of smoke appeared underneath the hood. The air bag and engine warning lights illuminated intermittently on the instrument panel. In addition, the contact exerted more effort to turn the steering wheel as if there were no power steering.
