Body problem #1

While pulling into a parking space at the park, as I took my foot off the brake, the car surged forward as if I had pushed the gas pedal. My foot never touched the gas pedal. The car ran over the parking stopper and the sidewalk onto the soccer field fence. Luckily, no one was hurt.

Body problem #2

I took my vehicle in to have the oil change done and was informed by the technician that the rear stabilizer bar on the passenger side was broken and a section of it was hanging down. I immediately took my vehicle to the dealership, where they placed it on the rack and confirmed this information. The broken stabilizer bar was removed and an order placed for the new part. The service manager at the dealership confirmed that "there were no signs of abuse" and that they just don't know what caused this!.
