1982 TOYOTA CELICA

IN 1984, I OWNED A TOYOTA CELICA AND WAS ON THE FREEWAY DRIVING WHEN I HAD THE CAR SPED UP AND I WAS UNABLE TO SLOW DOWN. WELL AHEAD OF RECENT COMPLAINTS. AS I CAME DOWN A BUSY OFF-RAMP, I COULD DO NOTHING BUT TO TURN THE CAR OFF. I FINALLY CAME TO A STOP WITHOUT INCIDENT. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND STRESSED OVER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN AT THAT MOMENT WITH HAZARD LIGHTS FLASHING TO ALERT OTHERS. THE CAR STARTED FINE AND I DROVE TO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT. I CALLED TOYOTA WHO SENT A SERVICE REP TO MY LOCATION AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I HAD NO OTHER INCIDENTS LIKE THIS, IN THAT CAR, BUT IT GOES BACK SOME TIME AND TO A TIME WHEN COMPUTERS WERE LESS A PART OF VEHICLE MONITORING. *TR

THE FRONT SEAT BELT RETRACTOR FAILED AND AS A RESULT THE PASSENGER WERE NOT RESTRAINED. *AK THE CONSUMER HAD SEAT BELT CAMPAIGN SSC 604 COMPLETE BUT IT DID NOT HELP. THE SET BELTS HAVE NOW BECOME BROKEN BECAUSE THEY HANG OUT OF THE DOOR WHEN IT IS BEING SHUT. *NM

SOMEONE NEEDS TO TELL OFF. [XXX] THERE ARE PENALTIES FOR FILING A FALSE POLICE REPORT. MY NAME IS [XXX]. ON 23 OCT 03 1530 HRS I WAS DRIVING E ON W. WASH. BLVD. AND INTO THE L T/L INTO THE INTERSECTION WHILE THE ARROW WAS G. TRAFFIC KEPT ME FROM TURNING UNTIL THE LIGHT WAS R. WHILE TURNING THE LIGHT FLASHED FROM ONE OF 4 CAMERAS AND A WEST BOUND DRIVER RAN THE RED LIGHT AT 70 MPH, DIDN'T TRY TO STOP AND B/S MY CAR BEHIND THE PASS. D/P, SPINNING MY CAR UNTIL IT WAS FACING THE SOUTH EAST CORNER OF THAT INTERSECTION. THE S B/L OF BEETHOVEN ST. WAS OCC. BY A 1 TN VAN THAT WAS STOPPED, WAITING TO TURN R AFTER THE LIGHT TURNED G. IT WASN'T DAMAGED. THE DRIVER LEFT HIS VAN, APPROACHED ME AND SAID "GET YOUR [XXX] OUT OF MY WAY!". I SAID I HAD TO STAY THERE UNTIL THE POLICE ARRIVED. WHEN THEY DID THE OFF ASKED ME WHAT HAPPENED. I TOLD HIM EVERYTHING I STARTED THIS MESSAGE WITH. THE OFF TOLD THE PM I'M A VET (WITHOUT LOOKING IN MY WALLET) AND TAKE ME TO THE VA. HE DIDN'T ASK ME WHERE I WANTED MY VEHICLE TOWED TO(UNLIKE WHAT IS STATED IN THE REPORT) OR LOOK AT THE REG. AND INS. CARD, BUT DID ASK ABOUT MY NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER, AND IF I WAS INJURED. THE REPORT STATES I'M THE OWNER, CA [XXX](NOT); MY INSURANCE AGENT IS MERCURY (NOT), IT'S 21ST CENTURY, POLICY #[XXX]; MY CAR WAS FACING NW AFTER THE ACCIDENT(NOT); THE VAN WAS [XXX]. ON THE L SIDE(NOT); MY CAR WAS DAM. ON THE R SIDE(NOT); THE OTHER DRIVER DIDN'T RUN THE R LIGHT, I TURNED L INTO OC TRAFFIC ON A Y LIGHT AND I CAUSED THE ACCIDENT(NOT). THE POLICE DIDN'T TAKE PHOTOS OF THE ACCIDENT SCENE. I TOLD THE P/M ABOUT THE CHEST, HEAD, NECK, LOWER BACK AND L ARM PAIN. WHEN I WENT TO CULVER CITY PD TO PICK UP THE REPORT I ASKED TO GET A COPY OF THE PHOTO AND THE OFF. SAID THERE WASN'T ONE. MY INSURANCE AGENT SAID I HAVE TO DISCUSS REPORT WITH THE OFFICER WHO FILED IT," IT IS SOLELY THE BUSINESS BETWEEN YOU AND THAT POLICE OFFICER." I DON'T AGREE. *LA INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BOTH THE PASSENGER AND THE DRIVER SEAT BELTS STOPPED WORKING. THEY DO NOT ADJUST OR STOP WHEN PULLED ON QUICKLY TO SIMULATE AN ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED THREE LOCAL DEALERS AND THEY ALL SAY THAT THE SEAT BELTS ARE ONLY WARRANTIED FOR 60,000 MILES. I THOUGHT THAT SEAT BELTS CARRIED A LIFETIME WARRANTY. CAN YOU GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION ON THIS. THANK YOU.
