Highlander

  • 39,800 miles
1. I was traveling East on bolsa ave. Going straight, and the other driver was coming out of the abc market driveway. She made a right turn. 2. my car made a loud sound and then drove into the other driver's car. 3. I had my foot on the brakes, but the car went forward like it was a racing car. Then the car went in reverse and landed from the street onto the sidewalk. 4. my car is a 2006 Toyota Highlander 5. I believed the pedal got stuck and the car accelerated towards the other car. 6. it felt like the car was going 100 miles an hour.

Driver side airbag has to be replaced in 3 month old Toyota Highlander. Warning light did activate indicating problem. Dealership indicated until repair is done air bag shouldn't deploy inadvertently but probably won't deploy in an accident.
