Narrative

With my foot on the brake,the car suddenly revved up and accelerated into my garage taking the garage door and the store belongings inside.i have video and pictures of the tire marks when I stepped harder on the brake to stop the acceleration.The transmission on the car had works done by two Mercedes Benz dealers and service personnel indicated the manufacturer has stopped making this hybrid model due to multiple problems. This car while driving on the freeway at 70 mi per hour suddenly flased a dashboard warning that say "start engine or the connections will shut down".Since it is middle of the night I had to exit t t he freeway and call a tow truck because I felt the car will stall for it happened once before.The dealer checked the car and said nothing is wrong with t h e car.I feel totally unsafe driving this car for fear of injury yo myself or to others I have videos and pictures to support this incident
