I pulled into a parking space & was just ready to complete brake and turn off engine when my car lunged forward as though the gas was floored. It was so fast I could do nothing! The car went barreling down the side of the building scraping the wall & only stopped when it hit a parked car. This car did this all on it's own. Now I am afraid to drive it when it gets out of repair (giuffre buick). They said they have never heard of such a thing but I found a complaint just like it on your site.
