May 19th of 2007, my 2002 Toyota rav 4 4X4 was in an accident. It was hit in the front passenger side doing 25-30 mph. After struck, I applied the brakes twice, while the car continued to accelerate at an increasing high speed, resulting in hitting a glass bus stop ending up hitting a brick school. It continued to accelerate although I was unable to go anywhere. No injuries reported.

When shifting from drive to reverse and vice versa a clanging sound is heard from the front. I took car to dealer and was told front brake pads need replacing and rotors need to be resurfaced at a cost of $250.+ tax. Car had only 10,250 miles. The problem is still present. I was finally told this is normal. Problem was not there until the car reached 7500 and the first tire rotation was performed by the Toyota dealer.
