 Description of the problemThis is a 5. 7 hemi engine with 62200 miles. I had driven into a 7-11 parking lot and almost came to a halt deciding whether to park on the right or left. Decided to park on the right. Car was at around 2 miles per hour, lifted my leg off the accelerator to hit brake, when the car suddenly accelerated, climbed over the sidewalk, sliced and felled a tree and rammed into a laundromat. Brake was applied to the point of literally standing on it with whole body weight but car did not respond. Finally the car came to a halt although engine was making revving sounds for a few more seconds. Luckily nobody was inside the laundromat. Air bag did not deploy even though the front was badly damaged. Police report was filed. Cop was also surprised air bag did not deploy for this hard a crash. The car has been owned by me since new for 7 years and this has never happened. Insurance sent a special technician to check, but nothing could be found. Car is more than likely totaled at this point. Please do something about this, someone can get badly injured for life, or deaths can occur.
