My accident on [xxx] with my 2025 BMW X3 VIN [xxx] was avoidable and caused by either failure in design, or in execution in two BMW systems, I'll discuss parking assist here. Pictures and videos (even one of the crash) can be downloaded here: [xxx] prior to the accident my husband set a backing up path “home 1” within the BMW parking assist program for me to follow to align the car when backing into our driveway. This takes over braking and steering to move the car on a predetermined path and stops at the end. I have successfully used it many times. It shows up as an option when backing near the top of our driveway. In the video of the crash ([xxx]), the car turns into the driveway, slows to a rolling stop, and then continues back and crashes. I pressed the “start home 1” icon to enable it when I thought the car was stopped but retrospectively was likely rolling very slowly at the top of the driveway. The icon showed me the “home 1” path as being accepted by changing from “start home 1” to “cancel home 1” thus I believed the car was following the “home 1” path, but the car evidently did not actually engage “home 1. ” my husband's investigation shows that this happens if the car is not fully stopped, even while the brake pedal is pressed, while pressing the “start home 1” button. This behavior is documented in the mp4 ([xxx]). I thought that “home 1” was engaged and the car following the predetermined path, even though in retrospect, it was not. Evidently, the car was rolling backward in reverse on a downgrade not following the "home 1" path. The car gave me the opportunity to cancel the "home 1" path even though the car wasn't following it! by the time I saw the car was not stopping, I pressed the brake pedal hard, but it was too late to avoid the car hitting our house, damaging car and house. BMW has the car and is investigating. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
