| Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6) [xxx] i am writing you for the accident in sept. 12, 2009, i drove the honda 2006 crv se in the local road named concord farm north bound. before stop sign, i released the accelerator and started to brake, as usual it stopped before the stop sign, but that day it did not. at the moment i realized i could not stop the car, i was thinking to cross road, but there was no time to react i got hit by the car who traveled on the road perpendicular to my direction. this accident was considered as my mistake. since i did not have collision insurance and the car was totaled which is the big financial loss (actual market value estimated in $20k) in my life. at the same time i suffered the burning on arm from the airbag popup and frequent noise on ears. until today i still have issues with insurance company on medial coverage. i am the careful driver and never have had any accident caused by myself. i do not understand what really happen on the day at the time. at the beginning i blame the brake, which might be wore out since i just have tires replaced (the life time for the tires should be 6 years or over 70k miles but actually wore out in 3 years and 45k miles). but the technician never warns me for replacing brakes. after i reported my suspicious to the insurance company then there was a phone message from some one declared the brake was in good condition (i assume the phone message was from insurance company). any way i have to admit all are my own bad luck. recently i watched the news and learned that toyota has recall over a lot of models for accelerator problem and i noticed that both the electronic and mechanic components used on accelerators are made by the same company cts. we knew it took toyota about 8 years to eventually admit their design problem and i believe honda might have the same problem as toyota. from a customer point of view i want to know the statistics on honda crv accident on 2006 model. *tr | |||

| The accelerator on my 2006 honda crv has gotten stuck twice in the last week while driving on the highway. i checked for floor obstructions. none were present. i finally put it in neutral and coasted to a stop, and turned off the car. when i turned it back on, it seemed to run fine. the occurrences were 2 days apart. *tr | |||
