NHTSA Complaint #11521099 — 2023 TESLA MODEL Y

I was trying to make my way into a parking lot yesterday and my car was in a complete stop and I was making sure that the spot is a right one since I was in downtown Norfolk with its parking issue. I noticed a sudden acceleration of my vehicle and I obviously became terrified and just waiting for what will happen next. Fortunately, the parking lot of empty with no passenger or vehicle to run into. I pressed the brake and the car came into a complete stop. I can only imagine what could have happened if the parking lot was not empty. I parked my car and went for my appointment. After my appointment and I drove the same car home with no issues, I am curious to understand what has happened so I started researching online whether this is a one of issue or there are others who have had similar experience. I found that there are cases describing something similar to what I had experience but the investigation blamed it on user misuse or misapplication of acceleration. I STRONGLY believe that there is more to this issue than what your previous investigation has unravelled and my concern is more about the public safety danger that this represents. What could have happened if there are people at the parking? What if this had happened in a public square? I am one of the cases that did not result in an accident but I do have responsibility to report this and ensure that this case is properly investigated. Looking forward to your update on this matter.
