| Description of the problem | I was pulling into a parking spot at my health club. As i was about to stop, my vehicle suddenly and violently accelerated going into the curb, up a dirt berm and over some very large boulders. I never made it over the berm because the car got lodged onto of a large rock. When it was over, it took a couple of seconds, i know that my foot was pushing hard on my brake. However, i doubt that would have stopped the car. I will report this to mercedes benz, have it checked, but i am not optimistic they will find anything wrong. |
