All those commentators shouting Honda up and down, can't you see the mind bogling number of deaths. How many people die as a result of wheel axel failure? that generally occur at low speeds?

Number 4 has happened to me with a sienna. The engine will just accelerate to a very high speed even if you are braking. I had to brake with all my strength before the car eventually nearly came to a halt and i quickly switched off engine. It was a horrible day i was visibly shaking.

That No.4 is very true. Happened to a friend along Abaji-Kwali Expressway in 2010 while driving his camry muscle. The car just started accelerating like joke. He had to put the gear on "Park" and pulled his handbrake while the vehicle was doing over 140km. the vehicle lifted off the ground and landed in the nearby bush. Transmission was shattered and the vehicle was totaled.

Dude was like "it was a spiritual attack" until we stumbled across the news of the recall of Toyota Camry vehicles especially that muscle version.

Why not neutral?

According to him, he was in a situation where he had to make a split decision because the car was on top speed and on veering to the other lane, there was a truck coupled with vehicles right in front of him in his own lane and he was already tailing on them. He wanted a situation whereby the car would stop abruptly and engaging the "P" gearshift with the handbrakes was what came to his thinking that moment. He said everything happened so fast before he even had time to think.
