When I started the car, which has only 17,000 miles on it, the warning lights came on alerting me of brake failure. I was in my driveway & had not yet departed.

I was park at stop sign on a city street with my foot on the brakes next thing I knew I was hitting another vehicle my brakes unintended accelerated and my brakes failed. I could not stop this car for 2 blocks, I tried to place it in park, and also turn the car off, the car would not stop. I kept my foot on the brakes but it just accelerated. I reported it to Lexus and according to Lexus an independent analysis would come out and inspect my vehicle. The vehicle set on Lexus car lot for a month and the was inspected and a month later Lexus notified me informing me that my brakes showed no evidence of failing, well either I am lying or Lexus is lying, or there is a underlying problem with the brakes that Lexus was unable to detect are choose not to admit because the millions of dollars a recall can cost, its in Lexus best interest to deny my claim and wait for multiple of their customers to loose their lives before the company admit that there is a problem. I had no injuries and car I hit rec'd no injuries, I was just so emotional distraught that I haven driven in 3 months
