| My wife had an uncontrolled acceleration event in her 2008 subaru outback when she was trying to park behind another car. she didn't think the floor mat was involved. she had winter boots on and thought she was only pressing on the brake. her front license plate was torn and she did about $700 of damage to the other car's rear bumper. *tr | |||

| Sudden unexpected acceleration while driving. even pulling into the driveway with foot on the brake the engine revs up or same problem while sitting at a stoplight. it's as though the car does not want to stop. at times if you shift down and let off on the gas the car goes for a short stretch without slowing down. *tr | |||
