Tl* the contact owns a 2012 cadillac srx. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, when depressing on the brake pedal but the vehicle began to accelerate.

The contact sustained a fractured right foot, back and neck injuries and front passenger sustained neck, back and both knees injured. The contact did seek medical attention the following day. A police report was filed.
Accelerating is stalled. Engine is goes into a pull and tug mode in engine. Cant get in RPM speed in pedal. Engine is heavy. Brake pedal becomes stiffens and slight brake makes srx stop suddenly. All this is happening while on highway and city driving in with the vehicle in motion . Also I've taking the srx in for diagnostics several times. And no code are found to report on the vehicle
