## Narrative
I was driving to work and my Subaru stalled at an intersection.  I restarted the car and continued to work.  It is raining heavily.  I arrived at work and the parking lot is full of water.  I was slowly pulling up forward in the parking spot.  I had my foot on the brake trying to get as far forward in the spot to avoid as much of the huge puddle in the lot as I could when suddenly the vehicle lurched forward over the concrete stop in the parking spot, onto a raised concrete sidewalk and then smashed into my work's building.  It happened in a split second and I can hardly believe what has happened myself.  After searching on the internet, I can see that newer models are having this problem so I came here to let someone know that at least a 2008 model had this problem too.
