I was pulling into a parking space and started to apply the brake to stop before reaching the parking curb. When I gently pressed the brake the vehicle lunged forward, so I fully depressed the brake pedal. At that point the vehicle accelerated, jumped the parking curb and continued forward although my foot was still pressing on the brake. Since my wheels were turned to the right, I missed hitting a tree and drove off the paved area of the parking lot, into a hedge, and continued into the swale separating the street from the parking lot. There was a FORD F-250 XLT parked on the swale perpendicular to the parking lot. I hit the F-250 on the front passenger door with enough force to move the front end of the truck almost 2 ft., even though the truck was less than 10 ft in front of my car. The collision with the F-250 is what stopped my vehicleâs acceleration and forward movement. During the accident the brake pedal was actually accelerating the vehicle. I was not hurt due to the confined area in which the accident occurred. The vehicle sustained severe damage and was towed to the dealer collision center. I contacted the manufacturer (Stellantis, Alfa Romeo) and filed a claim. They sent BOSCH to retrieve the EDR data. Stellantis is claiming the crash was not their responsibility but have refused to share the EDR data/report or cooperate in any way. They told me to have my insurance pay to fix the car and continue to drive it. If the vehicle malfunctions again I may die or kill
