“I own a 2004 Audi A8 quatro, this morning the car accelerated on it's own. The driver seat, steering wheel, and the car suspension adjusted automatically while I was driving it and it went from 40mph to 150+ without me having my foot on the accelerator. For a minute I thought I was going to die. I slowly starting pressing on the brake pedal hoping the car would not flip. It took about 2 to 3 minutes for me to slow down the car. I put the emergency brake and turned it off. …”
