Consumer Description

I was parking in my usual spot, slowly into the parking spot with my foot on the brake 5 mph, suddenly the Jeep accelerated and smashed into the wall of the building at full force. The Jeep bounced back so hard it jerked my head. The Jeep was leaking fluid, and the frame bent with body damaged. It had to be towed to the body shop. I am 100% sure that my foot was NOT on the accelerator. This could have been a fatality if I was on the road with other cars. Please investigate, I feel unsafe.
