Narrative

I was pulling into a parking spot. When I went to accelerate, the car over-accelerated. The engine revved so high, I could not control it. I had nowhere to go and hit a cement wall, totalling my car. All the airbags went off. I did walk away, though. I researched this issue online and it seems there are many instances of this happening. No warnings whatsoever. No recalls at all.
