What 334 owners told NHTSA about the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-e Bev Bev

When stopped at a stoplight, in unbridled mode with one pedal driving engaged, the car surged forward on it's own. The surge forward caused my vehicle to rear-end another vehicle. I would assume the failure was the one pedal driving system and it is available for inspection. The problem has not been reproduced or inspected yet, but we have an appointment for a Ford dealer to evaluate the car. The only warning was the pre collision warning which did go off.

On approximately March 20, 2022, I was driving my Mach E vehicle. I pulled into a driveway and parked my vehicle. Upon exiting my vehicle, my vehicle began accelerating forward up the inclined driveway. It then struck a parked vehicle and came to a stop. The car accelerated uninetentionally which is in alignment with the current recall. Additionally, the advanced emergency braking did not work as the brakes did not deploy and the car only went back to rest after I re-entered the car post-accident.
