On [XXX] we were parking the car in the lot at [XXX] , when the car suddenly accelerated despite my foot being on the brake and crashed into a storefront. The fireman said the airbags deploy code was issues but the airbag never deployed, and the automatic emergency braking did not stop the car. It seemed as though the transmission was switched, but we had not touched the gas. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
WHILE OVERTAKING ANOTHER CAR ON A 2 LANE ROAD UNDER HIGH ACCELERATION (90 MPH) IT APPEARED THAT ALL ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS IN THE CAR FAILED. THE DISPLAY SHOWED SEVERAL SYSTEMS FAILING AFTER ANOTHER AND BEEPING INDICATORS WERE HEARD. THE POWER BREAKING FAILED, ONLY NON-POWER ASSISTED BREAKING, POWER STEERING FAILED AND THE ENGINE STALLED DURING THE TIME WHILE OVERTAKING ANOTHER CAR. I COULD STILL OVERTAKE THE OTHER VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE STOP THE CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN PARKING I SHUT OFF THE IGNITION, STARTED AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE. THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED LATER ON THAT DAY. THEN AFTER THAT EVENT THE SOS MALFUCTION WARNING CAME ON AS WELL AS THE ENGINE ORANGE LED (SEE PICTURE). THIS HAD NO DIRECT EFFECT ON DRIVING AND THIS WARNING STAYED ON FOR ABOUT A WEEK. SUDDENLY THAT WARNING DISAPPEARED.
FRONT BRAKES ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. REAR BRAKES OK. FRONT BRAKES OVERHEATED BEFORE I COULD SAFELY STOP. SMOKE FROM FRONT BRAKES EVIDENCED THE OVERHEATING. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHO COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.
