There were two separate incidents on the same day, Sunday, December 4, 2022. I rounded a corner on a city street (Goodfish Farm Road), which is parallel to the Wal-Mart shopping center in Albeny, Oregon. USA. When I applied the brake the car “floored it.” I pushed the brake pedal hard with my right foot and car rushed a little but came back under control, It scared me and I did a mental note to check the floor pads. I pulled on into the larking lot without incident and went on with my shopping. About an hour later I got back into the car drive about 11 miles hone in it without incident until I drive down my driveway, applied the brake to stop at my house, and the car repeated it’s performance. This time it was in gravel, so it dug through about 8 inches of top gravel and dug out 10” inch bedrock from the driveway.
