While backing up very slowly out of the garage, the transmission jumped from reverse into forward. The gas pedal floored itself and the car accelerated at full speed into the wall of my garage, climbed over the cement foundation, and then the car slammed into the side of my house. My foot was off of the pedals as I was thrown around the inside of the car. The airbags did not go off even though the windshield was shattered. The only reason the car finally stopped was because it had been severely damaged as it drove itself over the cement foundation of the garage. The car was declared totaled by my insurance company.
