I am writing to inform you of a dissatisfactory experience I had with Toyota. Recently, my wife and I were driving and had a very unfortunate experience. While driving at full speed, we were hit from the back. At that point, the car immediately lost control. Imagine our surprise by being stuck in a car over which we had absolutely no power. We tried to stop in just about every way possible. My first instinct was to step on the brakes. I did so, as hard as I could, but with no success. Apparently, the brakes failed. I still kept trying, but they would not work. Basically, my wife and I were trapped in a car going at a fast speed with absolutely no way to stop. It was a very scary situation ,and we feared for our lives. We consider ourselves very lucky as the situation could have definitely been a lot worse. It was a good thing that there were no cars or pedestrians that got in our way. We had no idea what to do. We continued trying to get the car to stop by putting the car into park and pulling the emergency brake, but neither of these methods worked. With such a reputable company like Toyota, I would imagine that the cars were designed to handle situations of high stress like this one. My wife and I luckily managed to get out safely. Somehow we managed to maneuver the car to side, but unfortunately it landed in a ditch, and the car was totally wrecked. Just a few feet from where we landed was a tree and we were fortunate the car stopped when it did. It was a terrifying situation. It was shameful that a car from such a reputable company could put us through such a terrible ordeal. I never would have imagined anything like this would happen. I cannot even begin to describe how unhappy I am. I do not have the same faith in Toyota cars as I once did. I just wanted to make you aware of the situation. I appreciate your time.
