While attempting to make a 3-point turn, I first backed out of a driveway onto the road, paused to check for traffic, shifted from reverse into drive and pulled forward and . Started to turn to my left. As I did I experienced a loss of steering and brakes and the dashboard indicator lights all lit at once. My car drifted across the center line and I was unable to stop it from rolling to the other side of the road where it ended up perpendicular to oncoming traffic and only stopped when it hit an embankment. My car sustained front bumper and grille damage.
The vehicle was in an accident as a result of another drive jetting out in front. Car impacted at the front driver side, causing damage to the front bumper mount, hood and driver side quarter panel. Impact to the other vehicle was the rear quarter on the passenger side. Upon impact the airbags failed to deploy, onboard safety connect feature did not connect to confirm driver was ok and the sos button failed to work at the scene of the accident. This was reported to Toyota.
