I was heading to work on a stretch of road. I was traveling at about 45-50mph. A car pulled out in front of me and we had an accident.

My vehicle has a hand brake built into the vehicle and at 25,000 miles my hand brake started to fail and wouldnât hold the car in place.

oil pickup tube was clogged with rtv that was over used to seal the oil pan, which causes less oil flow into the engine and can cause failure.
