While pulling into a parking space and braking going 1 or 2 mph the car surged forward with the engine revving loudly, causing the car to crash through a brick wall and into a restaurant ending in the car being totaled with over $15,000 of damage just to the car. the car only had 20,000 miles. a quick google search for "g37 surge while braking" results in numerous different accounts in which this has happened as well as on this website under infiniti g37.
When i tried to park the car in parking area slowly, but the car suddenly accelerate itself with big engine sound and run into canyon over parking area. fortunately the car stop after hit the big tree otherwise i am not sure i can survive because there are very stiff canyon area after that tree. please investigate it what problem of this car cause this incident. thanks.
It started when i was pulling into the parking lot in my office building. with no warning, the car started to accelerate at around 7-8 rpm making a roaring noise heard by many witnesses. this resulted in losing control of the car which then went off the side of the lot into a steep decline where i hit a tree. if it wasn't for that tree there was another 60-70 ft drop into a canyon that i inevitably would have fallen into. you might say, "oh i might've pressed on the acceleration instead of the brakes", but there were skid marks left on the ground that would indicate i was already pressing the brakes to come to a stop, when it suddenly accelerated. in addition, i wouldn't have pressed the brakes that hard, so even if i did accidentally press the acceleration, there would be no way the car would hit 7-8 rpm without virtually flooring it. these are hypothetical situations that i am posing to show that it was not accidental on my part, but a defect within the car. this car posed a life threatening injury that i would like for future car owners to know and to take into account. please, please, please share this to anyone you know who owns this model car and report to every vehicle institution you guys know of. thank you. *tr
