I was driving home from work at approximately 1:30 pm on a clear, sunny day, about a minute away from my home. The road conditions were good, and there was no traffic. I stopped at the corner to make a left turn. As I proceeded to turn, the car suddenly accelerated. I immediately applied the brakes, but they did not engage. I had no control of the car. It jumped the curb ( caught on property owner's camera, going air born) , as I continued to brake as hard as I could with the car increasingly accelerating.I crashed through a fence and hit a pole which stopped the car deploying both driver side airbags. There was severe damage to the front right side of the car, and it was totaled. I was taken to the hospital via ambulance.my injury was diagnosed as acute l1 compression fracture along the superior endplate with mild anterior wedging. I was referred to an orthopedic specialist and have not returned to work due to pain and elevated blood pressure. To make matters worse, two days later I was issued a warning for failure to control speed!@&!

I was driving down the road on layton ave and 43rd street, and out of nowhere the headrests of the vehicle exploded, pushing my neck forward. Granted I went over a hole not that big, but the explosion was so drastic that it pushed my seat forward and my neck is now sore and tender from the impact. I am really scare now that this can happen anywhere. I called mercedes benz dealership and they said that they want me to bring the car so the can reset the system. I don't like that idea, because I got this car brand new and now the value really change. I don't feel safe in it anymore. I don't think mercedes is willing to take the car back either. Should I follow a lawsuit? I have 5 months left on this lease but anything can happen with this car now since already showed some malfunction. Headrests are supposed to popped out only if you are rear ended.
