1 Accelerator Stuck problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2011

On December 10, 2011, I was turning from northbound gary av. Onto eastbound lawrence Ave. At approximately 5 mph. While I was turning my accelerator stuck the engine sped out of control to at least 40 mph. I swerved to avoid hitting a truck turning onto gary and my car went over the south curb. . And my attempts to break were failing all this time. . . I crashed through a fence into somebody's back yard went down hill about 50 feet and ran into a tree. I then turned off the ignition. The airbag did not deploy. The investigating bloomingdale police officer started the car and the accelerator was still stuck in the wide open position. The body shop personnel also confirmed the accelerator was stuck.
