It appears that my car started itself, went into gear and drove into my garage. At 9:00 PM om Thursday my dog was barking and growling, I suspected someone was outside. I went to investigate and saw my car running and lodged against my garage and garage door. It would stop and start again and try to move forward but it was stuck against the wall and door. The car moved approximately 6 feet from where it was parked. This is a very dangerous condition. If a child was in front of the car they would be dead or very seriously injured. I have reported this to Aston Martin but have yet to receive and information.
