| Description of the problem | I was on my way to work and had entered our parking lot and was ready to pull into a parking space. As i pulled in and was at a stop , my car suddenly accelerated and i was unable to stop it. I started to turn the wheel to the right because there was a 2010 ford explorer that was parked in front but unfortunately i hit the back end of the car and pushed it at least 30 ft dead straight. My car continued going to the right and over a island and by the time i got it to stop the air bag had gone off. I'm not sure how this happened since i was stopped, there were two witnesses that saw my vehicle stopped and the next thing it accelerated. I know my foot was on the brake because i was stopped and ready to exit the vehicle but it would not stop. This is a brand new car only 2 months old with a little over 1000 miles. I have grandchildren that ride with me and after my vehicle gets repaired i would be affraid to drive this. I am thankful that other than bruises i am ok and that it did not happen on a major street. |
