I own a 2010 ford fusion hybrid. I was pulling my car into my garage to park it. I had slowed my car down very slowly before I pulled into my driveway. The car was "idling" into the driveway. About 5 feet from the wall and 2 feet from where I usually stop, the accelerator slowly pulled down toward the floor. It took me one or two seconds to realize what was happening. During that time, my car moved head on toward the garage wall. I pressed on the brake and the car stopped. The car had already slammed straight into the wall of my garage. My toddler was in the backseat of the car and started crying. I was shocked by what had happened. I loved that car and always believed that it was the perfect car. Now, I have damage to the car and to my house. Most importantly, the car spontaneously accelerated and a person could have been caught between my car and that garage. I was going to go to a popular grocery store in my neighborhood that day. But, I decided not to do so because my toddler was looking sleepy. If I had gone to the store, I could have run a shopper over with my out-of-control car. I called the dealership who sold me the car immediately. They did not call me back.
