While car was slowing in a parking lot area, turning and braking (have witness to attest to this), it had sua (sudden unintended acceleration) as I was about to park and the vehicle went over a curb and through a building wall in less than 10 seconds. The air bags did not deploy. This car also had a recent recall involving the electrical brake system lights/sensors. There was no alcohol, pills or anything of that sort involved and nor was a cell phone in play and no distractions. The car was being parked, as is the case everyday and there was a jolt of acceleration as I was doing so, which in turn caused confusion and panic. My foot was not on the acceleration as this happened. I am very fortunate that no one was hurt. Although, seeing how I have never been involved in a wreck before, this has all been very traumatic. (driving for almost 20 years) I have notified my insurance and Subaru about what happened. Hopefully they can shed some light on the situation so it won't happen to anyway one else. The other people that it has happened to, upon research, my heart goes out to them.
My 16 year old daughter was driving traveling at approximately 40mph on a ciity street when a deer jumped in front of her. She swerved to miss the deer, leaving the road and entering a heavely wooded lot. She came to a stop approximately six feet off the road stopped by a tree dead center in the front bumper. Even though she was traveling approximately 40 mph, never locked up the brakes, and her rear pumper was only six feet off the road, the air bags never deployed.
