The contact owned a 2011 Mercedes Benz C300. While at a stop, the accelerator pedal was applied and the vehicle violently accelerated to 30 mph. The brake pedal was depressed, but failed to respond causing the contact to crash into the rear end of another vehicle. The steering wheel and the steering column air bags deployed. As a result, the contact sustained knee and back injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000.
