Description of the problem | When pulling into my garage, the car suddenly accelerated unexpectedly and collided with the front wall of the garage (photo 08); when i shifted to reverse, the car careened out of the garage, across the driveway, and collided with my neighbor's home (photo 09), leaving skid marks (photos 06 & 07) on the garage floor. The car was in normal electric mode at the time. I purchased the car as a certified used car on may 3rd from dave gill chevrolet in columbus, oh. There were 12,490 miles on the car at purchase and a little less than 14,000 miles as the time of the accident. I am uploading nine (9) photos. |
