| Description of the problem | Was entering a parking place. Right foot on top of brake. While my car was moving at idol speed-the engine rpm's speed surges causing no control in steering, brake . The surgeing over rides the brake. Steering, everything.. Hit parked car. You have no control in situation. Had another "2010" van & same thing happened going thru garage door -2nd time almost hit building at my dentist building. Dealership made deal & switched to present van. Now this one has done it. Chrysler has inspected van for two weeks. They found nothing wrong . Case number at chrysler is #23859956. Can't drive this van again. Next time may injure or kill someone.
