I was driving down hwy 101 in oregon state in the rain. I was accelerating because I had just turned onto the highway, I got up to about 60 mph whe the car started dinging as it does when you open the door with the keys still in the ignition. The vsa light, as well as the engine, oil, abs and battery lights all started flashing on the dash and the car turned off. The steering wheel locked up and I had to throw it in neutral, turning the key back and forth from the off position to the start position to get it to unlock right before I crashed into on coming traffick! there has been nothing wrong with the car other than routine maintenance an absolutely no signs anything is wrong with the car. It has 168436 miles on it and has been religiously maintained. There is a serious problem with this vehicle for something like this to happen. I've owned hundreds of cars and never experienced anything like this happening, ever!.
With my foot on the brak pedal when coming to a stop the car accerlerated. The car lurched fprward.
