Description of the problem | At 2:30 pm on october 30th 2015 i parked in a commercial lot. I left the vehicle to go into a store, when i came out of the store i realized the car was "running". I opened the door and reached around the steering wheel to turn the car off by pressing the start/stop button. I think proceeded to leave the vehicle to go to another store. When i came out of the 2nd store i saw my car had engaged into drive and moved over 50 feet across the parting lot and hit another vehicle. When i got to my car i found it running and in "drive". This all happened without anyone in the car. The car basically "ran away" without anyone in the vehicle. |
