Description of the problem	While turning into my driveway i slowed to make the turn and my car immediately accelerated rpms revved up. No damage was done. Then a couple of days later i was pulling into a parking space and slowed to make the turn and the rpms shot up again causing me to hit a parked car and also a building before i could bring the car to a stop. I took the car immediately to gray daniels dealership in brandon ms and they told me they cld not even look at it until tuesday. This was friday june 15, 2018. No injuries occurred, my airbag did not deploy. Car has significant damage but was drivable. I was uncomfortable driving the car so i got a rental car and took the mkz back to gray daniels. After researching this issue, it seems a common problem and it is called electromagnetic interference causing unwanted acceleration. This is a huge safety issue that ford has known about for years!!!! The dealerships are also aware! Even though gray daniels played ignorant, they are aware. I have sent them an email of countless complaints made because of this issue and over 5000 deaths that have occurred and a huge lawsuit stimpson vs ford for this very reason! I want this problem resolved and a formal complaint filed. I will also be advising ford motor company (not that they will do anything) of the dealership and how i was treated. The dealership was completely unprofessional and my daughter even went to the dealership and explained their seriousness of the issue still gray daniels could care less and told my daughter to stop video and audio recording.
