On Sunday July 9, 2006 at approximately 3:30 p. M. I decided to stop at the grocery store. I pulled into the parking lot and was driving slowly with my foot on the brake to enter a parking space I turned left and eased slowly into the parking space with my foot on the brake bringing the car to a stop. The moment I stopped I reached over to put the car in park and all of a sudden the car surged enough to move the front wheels over the car stop in an instant with my foot still on the brake. I was shocked. Why was the car doing this? I still had my foot positioned on the brake and pushed down. The car continued to accelerate, and the back tires came over the car stop. At this point I removed the foot totally from the brake to see if the engine would slow down naturally without any action at all by me. The engine continued to surge totally on its own. I tried the brake again and the car still did not stop. At this point I realized that I was going to go into the road. I looked both ways and saw a silver Toyota with a lady driving it. A collision then happened and I jammed the brake on again and the car finally stopped. I was cited for failure to control. My brother worked at Lexus. He told me another lady had a similar accident while she was pulling into the garage and the engine surged and she ran into the garage door. I decided to look into it further on the internet when I got home. The information I found was unbelievable. Complaints were still being made on ongoing basis. I went to court for my ticket. I had to hire an attorney to defend myself. The charges against me were reduced to driving an unsafe vehicle, and I entered a no-contest plea. I have incurred psychological trauma and other physical injuries as a result of this accident. I would like to get out of my lease with Lexus, but Lexus won?t allow it. If Lexus acknowledges any problem with my CA, they will have to acknowledge all of the other problems reported by Lexus drivers.
