“On or about dec. 3, while driving through jamestown, nc , no vehicles in close proximity and with my wife's foot on the accelerator the car suddenly stopped. Only time it happened. On jan. 14, 2021, while parking the auto and with my wife's foot covering the brake peddle, the car suddendly accerated into a building. Air bags never deployed and with her feet on the brake pedal the car never shut off. It just kept accelerating into building. It looked like it was on fire. Bmw sent a corporate tech to evaluate. With no letters or e-mail, we received a call stating it was my wife's fault. …”
