Subject: Sudden unintended acceleration with Mazda CX-3: <br /> <br /> <br /> On January 27th 2016, I got into a very bad car accident while parking with my new Mazda CX3. <br /> <br /> That day I drove 20 minutes from home to work, and when I entered to parking lot I was may be 15 miles an hour! After I made my 90 degree turn into parking stall with a very slow speed, I pushed the brake to fully stop! Car almost stopped but suddenly something extraordinary happened and car suddenly accelerated! I could not do anything! It stopped by hitting the snow bank and another car parked in another stall! Lots of damage on both cars! Luckily I was OK physically and there was nobody in the other car. <br /> <br /> As soon as I can, I called Mazda CEC, filed a claim and made the car towed to the dealership where I purchased it.<br /> <br /> Both dealership and Mazda engineer inspected the car, they think there is anything wrong with the car however there is NO explanation regarding how this sudden acceleration happened when data from car also tells that my feet was on brake during the incident! <br /> <br /> I don't buy Mazda's answer regarding car is safe to drive!<br /> <br /> I did lots of research, talked to lawyers who are very familiar with this issue and found that there are similar cases, involving &quot;sudden unintended acceleration&quot; with many accidents involving bad injuries and sometimes death, but to the best I can figure out, it is difficult to prove causation by car malfunction. It leaves no trace and it is very hard to prove car has a problem. Even NHTSA did not find a vehicle-based cause of those incidents but some manufacturers still needed to pay millions of dollars to people who had Sudden acceleration with their cars for their lost! <br /> <br /> Mazda wants me to drive this car again to replicate the case while all facts out there tells that sudden acceleration happens and kills people!<br /> <br /> Let me know, does Mazda really want me to prove with my life and with my 2.5 year old daughter's life that this car has a defect? Or you want to keep a person's trust in Mazda again! <br /> <br /> Please help!
