What owners wrote

On sept. 14, 2009 I was backing up in a parking lot, to let another vehicle pass. My car suddenly began moving backward very rapidly and smashing into others vehicles and a child. I was taken to the hospital in an ambulance because my neck was hurting. I did not receive a ticket from the attending police officer, as she did not feel I did anything negligent. The car was totaled by my insurance company.

I was driving with a passenger in my 2000 camry. I slowed down anticipating to come to a stop at a t in the road, that had a stop sign. After pushing on my brakes, if felt like the motor was fighting against the brakes and pushing me forward. I put all the pressure I could on the brakes and it kept insisting to go forward.
