Description of the problem | I was parking my car. I had the brake applied and put it in park. The car accelerated on its own over a parking barrier, over a 1. 5' stone barrier, up a small grade and into and partially thru a concrete patio wall. The car's gearshift was in park. I had to move it back to reverse to get it back into the parking space. And even though the impact was substantial the airbag did not deploy. |
