S10 appropriate handling-memo to the secretary from -petition for an investigation into Toyota's safety system failures (full document not imaged) the consumer hit a large dear and the air bags failed to deploy. The consumer stated as he saw the deer, he immediately removed his foot from the accelerator to slow down, but the vehicle did not respond, so he tried to maintain the speed he had been driving. The consumer applied both feet to the brake pedal in an effort to stop the vehicle, but it was too late. Prior to the accident, the catalytic converter failed. The dealer stated a sensor was stuck which caused it to fail.
