| Description of the problem | While i was parking in my apartment complex parking space, the car accelerated itself so drastically while i was not touching the gas pedal. I hit the break several times and could not stop the acceleration. The car stopped accelerating when i turned it off. This was a very scary experience as no one expect the car to accelerate itself. Just by looking at the picture you can notice how far the car went, how much damage it caused by this strange acceleration and you can imagine how fast the car accelerated. |
