Accident:date: [xxx] time: [xxx] location: balboa park – san diego – morley field sports center – parking lot parking lot - google maps driver – geico insurance coverage || no passengers what: Nissan Leaf 2023 model sv+ - 8410 miles -- unintended acceleration incident backing up to leave parking lot – with seat belt on – looked at rear view camera – clear. Backed up slowly – then intersected with the rear bumper of a Honda – slowly I braked – then went into drive mode to get out of the intersection. Then I lost control of the car. Car went lurching forward fast – zoomed up over parking curb – 5 in – side-swiped the side of a tree with right front bumper – gashed with parts flying all over the grass. Crashing noises from jumping the curb and hitting the tree. I braked hard and got vehicle to stop = approx. 3 feet from another tree – which I would have hit straight on. No airbags were deployed. It all happened at high acceleration in an instant. After I recovered from the shock, I assessed the situation. The dashboard showed a malfunction – right front tire – no air pressure. Contacted my insurance company – geico – and opened a claim. Geico arranged for my vehicle to be towed by ASAP towing to my home. Took photos of the wreckage – collected all the pieces I could in a bucket – some were too large to fit into my car = air dam or some sort of under side cover – made of gray bendable plastic. Called ASAP - the towing company – asked about a flat bed as my front right tire was flat and the front bumper of the car had fallen off. My Leaf needs to be repaired. It needs to be reprogrammed by Nissan so that I feel safe driving it. Of note, I had to my Nissan dealer – mossy Nissan poway – for the recall r23a6 on sept. 26, 2023. Did they address the recall issue? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
