## Narrative
Two week old 2024 RAV4 hybrid with less than 300 miles.  In my driveway I put car in drive and it suddenly and aggressively accelerated.  It would not stop or slow despite my attempts to brake,  trying to avoid collision all I could do was steer to avoid impact.  Finally grazed a tree trunk, car then rolled onto passenger side and came to rest against the bush by my front door. Spouse and I required extrication by Fire Dept requiring jaws of life and removal of windshield.  Unsure of long-term injuries   Been driving many years and never had an accident with vehicle damage   Car was totaled
