“About a month ago in april 2016, I pulled into my driveway and upon pressing the brake pedal the car surged ahead and struck my garage door, damaging it. In this instance I moved the shift lever into reverse to stop the car. On may17, 2016 after picking up my grandson from his school, I experienced a sudden unexplained acceleration with no depression of the gas pedal, and despite depressing the brake pedal as hard as I could, would not stop until I hit and severely damaged my car and 2 other cars, then was only able to stop the car by moving the shift lever into park. …”
