Brakes Failed problems of the 2004 Lexus ES330

The contact owns a 2004 Lexus Es330. The contact stated that while traveling 20 mph, the vehicle accelerated and when attempting to engage the brakes it failed to respond. As a result, the vehicle crashed into a curb, flipped over and the air bags did not deploy. The contact sustained neck and chest injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer has not been notified. The failure mileage was 47,000.

I drove off the highway , route 50, in annapolis, MD, onto an exit ramp leading to ferguson road. I applied the brakes but the car did not slow down. I avoided a car on the ramp in front of me but immediately came to the stop sign at ferguson road. The car had not slowed down and I attempted to make the left turn onto ferguson road, but hit the guard rail and another car in the intersection. The air bags did not deploy. I received a cut on my left hand, a bruise on my right hip from the seat belt buckle and my glasses were knocked off. My wife in the passenger seat received a bruised right ankle and experienced pain in the sternal region. We both walked out of the accident and did not deem it necessary to go to the hospital. My wife's sternal pain has not gone away now 7 days after the accident and she will seek medical advice tomorrow, on March 17. On two occasions prior to this accident I experienced transitory brake failure ,but that caused no accident ,and right away after that the brake pedal pressure seemed normal and I forgot about those two incidents. The car had all routine scheduled services, the last being a 90,000 mile service on February 11, 2009. I am the original owner. I never received any notification from Lexus about any possible brake malfunction issues with 2004 Lexus ES 330 autos. The car was deemed not worth repairing by the allstate adjuster.

As I was pulling into the garage at my place of employment, I pressed on the brakes and the car began to accelerate, I continued to bounce off the wall several times before the car would stop. I felt that the brakes failed or the throttle was stuck. I have contacted my dealer, they called me back 30 minutes later and said that there was nothing wrong with car and I could pick it up. I felt as if I have been "blown off' and I am terrified to drive this vehicle again. I have since contacted the corporate offices and placed a complaint, however, this issue still remains unresolved. The form will not let me enter the correct model of my car, it is an Es330 not and RX.
