Journey

  • 5,500 miles
I had an accident this passed July 4, 2020 where I had no brakes. That experience will never be forgotten (pstd). I traveled that day 110 mile on the freeway and reached my destination stopped to check address, then turned slowly into a driveway. My friends pulled their car up so I can park behind. I pulled in pressed on brakes and realized there were no brakes when my foot went all the way to the floor and car started accelerating. My friends drive is on a decline. Very hilling area in harrison mi. I starting praying asking god to not hit their car, then not hit their houses and I saw bushes thinking they would stop me. But to no avail the car drove through them just missing a telephone pole. My car headed back to the street going towards the house across the street. I am still pumping the brakes. So I turned to my left and went thru a wooded fence hit a stone stump and went sailing (according to the neighbor of the house) four feet into the air and came crashing down on a tree. In my mind I was thinking this tree will stop my car praying not ending my life. The car hit the tree and landed on the ground proceeding to the street again. I am now driving down Dodge hwy with oncoming traffic on the wrong side of highway. I put the car in park but the car still did not stop. A street was coming up on the left side and I turned to get out of traffic and this street was going uphill and the car stopped. The car has been with dealership since July 6,2020 and 5 weeks later on August 17, I received a letter from fca stating "we are not led to believe that the incident was due to a manufacturing responsibility."
