Unintended Acceleration. I was driving back from a place in brand new Tesla, drove around 11-12 miles and was fine. We went to ice cream place and I stopped my vehicle in parking spot. Car was completely stopped at that time. To fix parking I put steering in reverse (donât remember putting my foot on acceleration at all) and car went back at fast speed. I was completely taken aback and before I could realize and put brake, it hit red pole. Thankfully all family members were safe and no car or any one was hit while car was reversing. All happened within just few secs. Car was towed away to home and then to body shop, police did come to check on scene but there was no police report as it didnât involve any other Car/person and no damage was caused to property. Car is damaged in rear but motor and battery is all fine. Itâs in body shop but maybe totaled based on claim. I still donât remember putting foot on accelerator while reversing but was blaming myself, then this morning I came across article so wanted to share the incident with you. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/breaking-nhtsa-petition-shows-tesla-s-sudden-unintended-acceleration-is-real-and-curable-217525.html
