2004 toyota corolla--driving on right most lane at speed about 25 miles because snowing had started . Date 02-12-2008 on I 96 east near inkster , exit. Suddenly car turned into left lane and accelerated to very high speed. Crossed 3 left lanes and crashed on to concrete barrier between east and west lanes. Due to start of snowing ,all traffic was moving very slow. So all cars in other lanes stopped. My corolla did not hit any other vehicle. Police gave ticket for speeding.

Dt*: the contact stated that the gas filler tube had rust due to defective material. The vehicle was taken to the dealership who coated the filler tube without removing the rust. The contact expressed concern about the repair performed because the rust could deteriorate the tube which could result in a gas leak.
