I pulled out onto Southside Blvd. My brakes failed, my driver-??s front of the car hit a Waste Management garbage truck right back tire and cut the sidewall of the tire. The engine was racing, the truck pulled off the road, and I had sudden unintended acceleration. I immediately turned into a strip center and my car was racing through the strip center, the brakes were not working, the car controls were not working, and I turned the ignition switch off and the car stopped. The car had to be towed. Presently my insurance company has issued an estimate to repair the cosmetic issues, but not the mechanical issues.

Car accelerates while braking on various occasions - so far I've had the car 4 months and it has done this without warning 5 times, luckily so far haven't hit anything. Brought it back to BMW 2 times and they say they can find no problems. I am now driving an accident waiting to happen and there is nothing I can do.
