Car Accelerates On Its Own problems of the 2009 Lexus RX350

Takata recall - my air bag never deployed on impact. As I was braking to park outside my garage door, the car suddenly accelerated extremely fast. My Lexus went through the garage door and I was braking but my SUV didn't stop until it hit things in the garage that stopped me. I even plowed into a piece of equipment that went out the back wall of the garage.

The contact owns a 2009 Lexus RX 350. The contact was driving at a low speed while driving into a parking space, when the vehicle suddenly accelerated and drove over the curb. She attempted to use the brakes which did not work at first to stop the vehicle. She then depressed the brake pedal with extreme force and shifted into park which stopped the vehicle before it could collide with a plate glass window. The vehicle previously had slight acceleration problems but when speaking to the dealer in January, the dealer stated that there was nothing wrong with it. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealership where the vehicle was at the time of the complaint. The dealer stated that the manufacturer would send a representative out to inspect the vehicle. The current and failure mileages were approximately 32,000-bk.

I was driving my 2009 Lexus RX 350 at about 25 miles per hour when it suddenly rapidly accelerated. Fortunately there was nothing/no car immediately in front of me. I pressed down on the brakes and the car responded by slowing down. I have reported the incident to Lexus and will have the dealer inspect the car as soon as possible. (they gave me an appointment in 2 days. ).
