The car accelerated to 68. 4 mph. I could not stop car first time with abs brakes. I took my foot off the brake and it helped but it was too late. The car hit the tree. The Sienna's brakes did not work properly at first, the car so how went from 30 mph to 68. 4 mph and the steering did not work. Something has to be done when 1. 2 million dollars of damage to a family. Luckily metropolitan and aetna limited the health care personals. The car was damaged beyond repair.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 12/25/2014

On 12/25/14 the Toyota Sienna had unexplained acceleration and hit a tree at 31 mph. My wife and son had right side lung contusions. My wife had an open wound from the seat belt. Since she was restrained that well she had a broken left leg and a right clavicle fracture that required surgeries. My wife almost died in delray beach medical center due to blood loss and poor medical attention. We know the seat belt did not work well because the rest of us were able to walk away from the crash. My wife is still suffering and realized from the american council safety lessons that her seat belt did not function correctly and the side bags are dangerous.
