The vehicle caught fire while driving along the interstate. It's a total loss.

I was pulling into a parking spot, without any warning the car accelerated through a fence and hit a tree. There were no injuries and the airbags did not deploy.

But that was not the case. I could not control the car and my thought "what is happening"!

The sudden unexpected acceleration and the lack of airbag inflation is going to be assessed by Subaru on 10/24/23. I understa
