What owners wrote
Driving very slowly uphill in a hospital parking deck, the principal driver of the car turned into an available parking slot applying some gas, from 25-30 feet away, only to have the vehicle accelerate uncontrollably, even with the driver's right foot fully engaged with the brake pedal. The van jumped over parking blocks at the end of the space and struck a concrete post, whereupon the engine compartment crumpled and the airbags engaged. The van bounced back approximately twenty feet.
I was in a long line of cars waiting to leave a parking lot after an event. At one point, after about 10 minutes in line, I briefly inched the car forward and then put my foot on the brake. With my foot firmly on the brake, the engine speed unexpectedly starting increasing quickly on its own. When the speed hit 5000 RPM and with my foot still firmly on the brake, I put the car in neutral to prevent it from possibly moving forward. Then I turned the engine off.
