“On dec. 2, 2014, I was entering a walgreen's parking lot in my leased 2014 Lexus IS 250, which I had owned for only 4 months with 1740 miles. Moving at 5mph or less, I turned the wheel to enter a parking space, when the car suddenly accelerated and took off. I pressed the brakes to the floor and nothing happened.

Luckily, I had an individual witness the entire episode. …”
