What owners wrote
I was slowly pulling into a parking space in front of local pharmacy. As I was about to put the SUV into park the vehicle suddenly accelerated with my foot on the brake and then jumped two curbstones and went across the front entrance to the store and then hit a parked toyota SUV and pushed the vehicle back four feet and then finally came to a stop.
The ABS brake lights came on as well as the skid warning light when I started the car. About 30 seconds later as I was driving straight at about 25 MPH down the street, there was a loud clicking sound and the brakes locked up and the steering wheel locked up too. Or possibly could have been the transmission that locked up. I can't be sure. But it is safe to say the entire care locked up leaving me unable to steer or maneuver the car in any manner.
