The Washington Post reports that two Washington area drivers have filed personal injury lawsuits against the Toyota Motor Corp., joining about 280 personal injury and class-action suits filed across the country against the company.
In their lawsuits, Andrew Flury of Pasadena and retired Army Col. Harry Williams of Woodbridge say they suffered severe injuries after the cars they were driving suddenly accelerated — an issue that generated a major recall of millions of Toyotas.
Their attorney, Todd Walburg of Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, blamed an electronic throttle system for the unintended acceleration and said the system also operated without a brake override system that could have prevented throttle problems.
