I was driving and the vehicle started to stall and then jolt increasing and decreasing in acceleration by itself I have already had the transmission serviced and rebuilt a couple years ago and now it seems to be doing the same thing.
On 1/8/15 at approx. 9:30 am, I was driving to work south on hwy 95 near exit 67 . Suddenly, other drivers were frantically waving at me to pull over onto the shoulder of the highway. What they saw ( and which I couldn't), was that there were flames under my car. I pulled over and got out of the car. Within seconds ( not even a full minute), the entire car was engulfed in flames and soon became a complete and total charred mess. Fortunately, I was not physically hurt and a maryland state trooper came onto the scene 2-5 minutes after I got out of the car. The cause of the fire is unknown at this time.

Driving northbound from gilroy on the 101 freeway, I was in the second lane from the right shoulder when the hood sprung open blinding my view and scarring the crap out of passengers and I. I started to imediateley pull to the left shoulder of the freeway even though I had no visual of what was in from of my view, the surrounding cars imediatly took notice of my fully extended white hood due to it was standing streight up in the air, the windshield instantly shattered outwards and the car had to be towed home, windshield replaced, the hood was a used hood that in not safe for use if accident the hood would slice my head off. A lot of parts are still damaged from the incident.
2003 Lexus ES 300 with brake failure. Consumer states that the brake failure had occurred a few weeks after having the front and rear brakes replaced. Dealer states that the vehicle was tested and no defect was found. While backing out of the carport, which required the consumer to have his foot on the brake, the vehicle while in reverse began moving backward slowly and the brakes failed to stop the vehicle. The consumer turned off the ignition, but did hit a tree, which cause a slight dent to the trunk door. The explanation given to the consumer was that the floor mat may have slid under the brake pedal and over the gas pedal.
