if you've seen the dashcam video, it is quite the ride. she was able to manuever the car in and out of traffic by driving into the median to get around cars.

i can say that i believe this woman, my mother's car does the same thing (though thankfully she's never had to deal with it in this manner, but it did cause an accident.) i used to think my mother was "crazy" or possibly hitting the pedal by mistake until i saw it with my own eyes. both vehicles are the same make (Kia) and both have received the same response from KMA "we can't reproduce the problem."

if you shut the ignition off the steering will lock if it's turned, probably about 1/8th of a turn. best do that on a straight.
