 Description of the problemThis letter is to inform you about a severe malfunction that caused an accident. I was traumatized by a sudden unintended acceleration with my 2013 honda civic. Luckily no one got hurt in this event, but i? M hoping that this fact will not reduce the attention from this severe malfunction. Following is a brief summary of the event that happened on may 10, 2014 at 6:30pm: i was driving slowly, under 5 miles per hour, approaching a parking near the sideways. There was one car already parked, and i was going to park behind it. I was about to complete my parking, and my leg was gently applying the brakes (i was almost at a complete halt). Suddenly, the car made a very loud noise as if someone pressed on the gas all the way (it was an awful noise), and then it shot itself forward at a crazy speed. As the car drove itself into the parked car in front, i pulled the handbrake and pressed harder on the breaks in the split second that i had to realize something is wrong. Since i was at a very low speed, the impact didn't deploy the airbags. The parked car in front of me stopped the car from going forward uncontrollably. All of this happened in a matter of seconds. At this point the cars engine decreased the rpm back to normal, and the car stopped pushing itself forward, though at that point i already deployed the hand brake.
