I WAS ABOUT TO PARK MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD LX IN A PARKING SPOT IN PARKING LOT IN FRONT OF A SHOPPING CENTRE. THE CAR WAS CRUISING AT 2-3 MILES PER HOUR AT THIS TIME. THERE WAS A SUDDEN AND RAPID ACCELERATION WHICH WAS HIGHLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO THE SLOW SPEED WHILE I WAS ENTERING THE PARKING SPOT. I APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT IT DIDN'T HELP STOP OR SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE CAR MOVED FORWARD WITH THE SAME RAPID ACCELERATION IN THE EMPTY PARKING SPOT IN FRONT AND STARTED MOVING TOWARDS THE NEXT PARKING ROW IN FRONT. I SWUNG THE CAR TO THE RIGHT ON TO THE ROAD BETWEEN THE TWO PARKING ROWS IN ORDER TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE CARS IN THE NEXT ROW. THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING WITH RAPID ACCELERATION. I TRIED APPLYING BRAKES HARD BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I BRUSHED THE BUMPER OF ANOTHER CAR IN THE PROCESS. I FINALLY HIT ANOTHER CAR PARKED NEAR A CURB AT THE END OF THE PARKING LOT. THE IMPACT WAS SO HIGH THAT THE OTHER CAR SWUNG 90 DEGREES. MY CAR STOPPED AFTER GETTING STUCK ON THE CURB AND WEDGED AGAINST THE OTHER CAR. THE AIRBAGS EXPLODED DUE TO THE HUGE IMPACT. I SURVIVED THE ACCIDENT WITH BRUISES AND BUMPS ON MY HANDS, KNEES, AND FEET. FORTUNATELY, NO OTHER PERSON IN THE PARKING LOT WAS INJURED IN THE ACCIDENT.

I BOUGHT A NEW HONDA ACCORD ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. I NOTICED AFTER DRIVING IT A MONTH OR MORE THAT EVERY LONG ONCE IN A WHILE IT WAS SHOWING ME A DEFECT KNOWN AS "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION". I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND AFTER THEY EXAMINED IT, PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER MACHINE AND TEST DROVE IT A FEW MILES, THEY FOUND IT TO BE PERFECT, NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I TOOK IT BACK AND CONTINUED DRIVING IT THINKING THAT PERHAPS I DID SOMETHING THAT CAUSED IT.AS I CONTINUED ON WITH IT, I PULLED INTO MY HANDICAP SPACE AT MY PARKING LOT. FRONT END UP TO A CONCRETE BUNKER WITH THE HANDICAP SIGN STANDING TALL IN FRONT. I WAS ABOUT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT THE KEY OFF, WHEN SUDDENLY WHILE MY FEET WERE OFF THE PEDALS THE CAR ZOOMED UP TO 40 MPH,I TURNED THE WHEEL LEFT TO TRY AND AVOID THE SIGN AFTER IT HIT THE BUNKER AND AS IT SPED INTO THE NEXT PARKING LANE I BRAKED AND SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL.LUCKILY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC IN THE SECOND LANE OR I WOULD HAVE KILLED SOMEBODY AS WELL AS MYSELF.I TOOK IT TO TWO MORE DEALERS WITH A DAMAGED PASSENGER FENDER AND THEY ALL SAID AFTER LOOKING AND TESTING AGAIN THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THE LAST DEALER BROUGHT A HONDA EXPERT MECHANIC IN FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND HE TOO SAID NOTHING'S WRONG. WITHOUT EVIDENCE THEY CAN DO NOTHING FOR ME.IF WE CAN'T FIND THE TROUBLE YOU SAY IS THERE, WE CAN'T ACCOMODATE YOU. I SAID, SO YOUR SENDING ME HOME NOW TO GET KILLED?SORRY BUT THERE'S NO PROOF. I CALLED HONDA MANUFACTURER AND THEY WOULD DO NOTHING.
