“Upon entering the vehicle which was parked in the garage and preparing to start I placed my foot on the brake pedal it proceeded to travel to the firewall with no resistance. I then pushed the start button and the instrumentation lit up. I could not proceed any further. I got out of the car shut the door. I pondered what to do next ie, call a tow truck, disconnect the battery and decided to re-enter the vehicle. Upon entering everything returned to normal. After this occurred I brought the vehicle to the dealership and was informed that they could find nothing wrong. …”
