What owners wrote

While parking the car at an apartment complex, I slowly pulled the car into a spot. The car following saw my brake lights. I had my foot on the brake and was about to put the car in park and there was a strange noise that sounded like overdrive and the car surged forward into a reinforced concrete wall. My foot was on the brake the whole time but I could not control the car, the wall stopped us from moving.
