| Description of the problem | I had just made a sharp turn in the parking garage to pull into my parking spot. The car accelerated from essentially a dead stop. My crv accelerated, jumped a parking divider and struck a concrete pole that holds up the roof of the parking garage. I was standing on the brakes and it would not stop. You could smell the burning in the car. The airbags did not deploy. I struck the l front bumper, blew the drivers tire, crumpled in the fender and did internal engine damage. The car had to be towed. I was seen and treated at an urgent clinic that night for back pain. A city police report was not filed since it occurred on hospital property but it was filed with hospital police. The damage was repaired at a professional body shop. They were unable to reproduce the acceleration. Said "it must just be a glitch....." |
