What owners of this build wrote

Structure crash Feb 2017
I was parking my car I heard and felt the car begin to accelerate. I put the car in park and step firmly on the brake peddle.then of it own volition it mounted the adjoining embankment and collided with the tree. This caused extensive front end damage
Unknown Or Other Jul 2019
When door unlocks via fob proximity or unlock command, the door itself also opens. This happened when stationary in the car and approaching the car. I did not attempt to do this when the car was in motion. The door must always be manually closed when this happens
