| Description of the problem | I parked my car on a road (neighborhood) with a slight incline. I went around in front of it to look at an item for sale (smalll pink piano) in the yard. I looked at the item, then heard my car take off. I tried to run to get into it to stop it, but it was going too fast. It ended up going to the right and running into the garage of the house i was near. It hit the left hand side of the garage and continued into the garage where it was stopped by some paint cans piled up and the back of the garage. The man who lived in the house was able to squeeze into the drivers side and back it out - i drove it home (about 2 blocks). My insurance company came out and estimated the damage at about $4500, but they have not looked underneath or at the mechanics. Subaru is investigating. Pictures are too big to upload |
