SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
ON 9/30/2011 I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH THROUGH OUR HIGH SCHOOL PARKING LOT. MY SPACE IS DIRECTLY ALIGNED WITH A SPEED BUMP. I SLOWED DRAMATICALLY FOR THE SPEED BUMP AT THE SAME TIME I MADE THE TURN TO ENTER MY PARKING SPACE. THE CAR RESPONDED INCORRECTLY TO THE BRAKES, WHICH HAD HAPPENED TO ME ONCE BEFORE. THE CAR SURGED FORWARD, OVER A SIDEWALK, DOWN AN EMBANKMENT AND INTO A WALL. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR SURGED FORWARD LIKE THAT WAS IN 2008 AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. THIS TIME, THE CRASH CAUSED IRREPARABLE DAMAGE AND MY CAR WAS TOTALED.
