CR-V

  • 154,475 miles
I was driving on a major road when the accident occured. I had stopped on a traffic light, but when I resumed driving, my car could not stop when I tried to slow down or braked. As the brakes accelarated, and I was going to hit the cars in front of me, I swung to a curb and lost consciousness temporary. Afterwards, I saw myself sitting down surrounded by a crowd. I came out and soon the police and the ambulance came.I was checked and the police took a report. The car was towed to a Honda's dealership for brake repair or replacement, fearing that my brakes were the culprits. Honda examined brakes and I was told that my brakes were fine, and that the unintended accelaration was caused by my front mat. I was then warned never to drive witth the mat. I reported to the american Honda, but it is refusing to take responsibility.
