At the time of the incident, I was pulling into a parking space in a parking lot near a park. I was traveling at approximately 3â5 miles per hour, consistent with idle or walking speed during a routine parking maneuver. I was nearly stopped and aligned with the parking space when the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly accelerated without driver input. This occurred from a near-idle speed in a parking lot, not during roadway driving. During the unintended acceleration, the vehicle traveled over multiple curbs on both sides. No audible warnings, no beeping, no proximity alerts, no forward-collision warnings, and no automatic emergency braking activated at any time, despite the vehicle crossing curbs and approaching fixed objects. No warning lights illuminated. The vehicle continued accelerating without driver input and struck and knocked down a fixed light pole. After the impact, the vehicle continued moving forward until I immediately slammed on the brake and brought it to a stop in the middle of the adjacent roadway. No orange cones or warning devices were present prior to the incident. Any cones visible in photos were placed after the collision by responders for safety and traffic control. The sudden acceleration and complete lack of safety-system response occurred during a low-speed parking maneuver where the vehicle should not have accelerated beyond idle speed
