Re; Audi Q4 etron vin [XXX] On XXX while on my driveway, approaching the garage, a sound came from the dashboard, a written message appeared on the screen, and almost simultaneously the car suddenly accelerated, going thru the partially open garage door, hitting the left side of the car already parked on the right side of the garage, and hitting the central air conditioning unit in front of it, damaging both cars, the air conditioning unit, garage cabinets, sink, and shelving.

The trunk power liftgate is often falsely activated by the foot-activated sensor. Even when your feet are not moving, if they are anywhere near the sensor it can set it off.

You have very little time to get out from under the liftgate.
