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.

While parked, car went on with gear shift failure with a note to take in for service, no lights on gear shift. Restarted car with it functioning as normal. 2 hours later, doors unlock on its own and all windows, sunroof also open on its own while in motion. Not exactly sure what is the defect as the car seems to be out of control from the driver/passenger.
