What owners wrote

I was involved in a collision, where the gas pedal was stuck and the brakes did not function properly. There were not any road conditions that should have prevented this vehicle from standing still. I was at a stop sign and the vehicle took off hitting a another vehicle in the side body. I have called the dealer and isuzu and no one seems to be concerned about a brand new car crashing, malfunctioning injuring me and my grand daughter.
