ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
When driving the car on Jul 20, the check engine light came on. It went off upon arriving home. We had it checked at our local NAPA Auto Care and they did an Electronic Engine Control Test. The garage did not clear Trouble Codes and advised us to take the car to a dealer. Upon driving the car on Jul 30, the check engine light came on once again. In May 2020, when we had our car in for service, at Sutliff, in State College, PA, they took care of the Engine Control, software issue. This dealer is no longer open so we started taking our car to Blaise Alexander in Altoona, PA We, also, have had several incidents with the Parking Brake not releasing. We took the car to Blaise Alexander, in Altoona, on 3-14-23, and they said that the software showed no problem with the Parking Brake. They advised me to call a tow truck and have it towed into their garage the next time it happened. There is a Cadillac Dealer in Ebensburg, PA which is approx 30 miles away. We are in a dilemma as to have it towed there or have it towed to the GM Dealer in Altoona, PA which is approx 16 miles away. Our car has 50, 813 miles on it. I will have it towed either to the Cadillac dealer or the GM dealer.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
After exiting a car wash (automated)on Monday-7/3/23, I was attempting to stop my vehicle so I could dry the exterior with towels. I was on the car wash property and as I approached an area that was open, I attempted to stop the vehicle, the engine revved very high and the vehicle took off at a very high speed in fractions of a second. The vehicle then climbed over a flower embankment and hit the wall of the Car wash. The impact was so great that it put a large hole in the wall and ruptured a main water line creating a huge water leak. The fire department and police officer arrived at the scene to make a report. My initial thought was that my sandal may have got trapped but after returning home and rethinking the entire incident may times I believe this was “UNINTENTIONAL ACCELERATION “ The driver side airbag and knee airbag were deployed. Thankfully I was not hurt. Had this happened when I was on a road or a grocery store/ mall parking lot things could have been very serious. I have insurance through State Farm and have requested them numerous times to have a diagnostic check done to identify the reason for this to happen and they have declined my request. Please let me know what the next steps are.
