## Narrative
There was a SUDDEN and UNINTENDED acceleration without the driver input while braking to park going approximately 1 - 2 MPH.  Our safety was at risk.  The vehicle was not in our control.  A police report was generated.  Rather than stopping we crashed into the apartment building causing significant damage to both the apartment and our vehicle.  There were no warnings, no automatic braking to avoid the collision, the air bags did not deploy.  The total damages are still being determined by the dealer and insurance company.
