What owners wrote
On march 14, 2020, and at 12:30 pm, I crashed into the front of a parked small subaru SUV on my private community street, which was at low-speed (10 MPH) but the front of my car was badly damaged and cost me about $17,000 to fix it! While nothing happened to the other vehicle except some minor scratches on its front bumper! Also, my left leg was injured because of the harmful knee airbag, and god knows what would have happened to me if the accident was at a higher speed, or on the freeway?
