| Description of the problem | I entered a parking spot and was moving slowly toward parking lot's wall at the minimal speed just above zero (0) mph, suddenly car increased a speed in a second on its own and crashed into a parking lot wall - short distance & sudden and unexpected acceleration didn't allow time to press the brakes. Car's whole front is damaged: hood, lights, windshield glass (broken by my head), radiator and bumper. Also, after the crush smoke/steam was coming out of the car and the driver's door jamed. I sustained a head injury as a result that airbags didn't deploy and my body was projected into a windshield. |
