Had total steering and brake failure on tight corner, went though showroom forecourt missing two rows of cars, out of petrol forecourt the wrong way ,hit car coming from left on a main road. Could be a right-off, Is this how you get rid of merivas.

So some part of the steering system broke, and both of the dual circuit braking systems failed at the same time?
