| PARKING BRAKE | |||
| 03/24/2010 | 14012 | ||
| On march 24, 2010, my co-worker and i were in my 2009 hyundai santa fe when it suddenly accelerated. i pushed the brake to the floor and it would not slow down. i then put on the emergency brake. both feet were extended to the floor holding these brakes down. the car did slow down but would not stop. i had to take a left turn across the highway (there was fortunately a break in the traffic), i put the car in park and turned off the engine. it made a very loud noise that lasted about 10 seconds or so. we jumped out of the car as if it were on fire. it's currently at the sheehy dealership in waldorf, md. we are awaiting their diagnosis. | |||
