Narrative

On June 3, 2026 at approximately 3:48 PM, I was operating my 2025 Ford F-150 Lightning Flash in front of my home. The vehicle was at a stop or near-stop. I shifted the vehicle into Reverse, and it rapidly accelerated unexpectedly while in one-pedal driving mode. I then attempted to shift the vehicle into Park to stop it. The vehicle then stopped abruptly and surged forward, ultimately crashing into the front of my house. The vehicle movement and acceleration were not consistent with my intended driver input. One-pedal drive was on, cruise control/BlueCruise/driver assist were off, road conditions were dry, no warning lights or messages appeared, and I noticed no floor mat obstruction. The exact speed reached is unknown, but the impact caused substantial exterior and interior structural damage to the house. I sustained injuries to my head, neck, right leg, and left elbow and went to the hospital for evaluation and treatment. A police report is pending. I am filing this complaint because the vehicle appeared to experience rapid unexpected acceleration and movement not consistent with intended driver input.
