In March 2010, a 56-year-old woman was injured when her 2005 Prius malfunctioned due to sudden unintended acceleration, causing it to back out of a driveway and crash into a brick wall. Over the past decade, more than 15,000 claims have been filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration due to the occurrence of SUA in Toyota vehicles. Under the weight of mounting reports of SUA-related accidents in their vehicles, in October 2009, Toyota recalled more than 6 million of its motor vehicles in the U.S. due to concerns that sudden unintended acceleration could affect these cars.
Dangerous and deadly, SUA is a defect in which a car will immediately speed up despite the fact the driver is not pressing the accelerator pedal – and without him or her being able to stop the car by stepping on the brake pedal.
