Our 2016 MINI cooper jcw was involved in an accident, where it failed to stop, and, in fact seemed to accelerate. A previous version we owned did the same thing, several years ago. A few days after this accident, an article appeared in the national media, describing a similar accident in new york. In that instance, the car struck was being driven by the actor [xxx] , which was why it received so much national attention. Our vehicle suffered $7000 in damage. No air bag deployed, and it was moving at less than 5 miles an hour. We have had multiple incidents of feet getting caught in the pedals (we have a manual transmission). Having had two similar accidents, I have concluded there IS either a problem with the foot pedal locations, or a propensity for uncommanded acceleration. Because so few of these MINI jcw performance models are sold, it?s possible that the database IS insufficient to cause notice. I am over 70, but regularly drive a lamborghini (my third). My reflexes are good, and I am an experienced driver of specialized vehicles. I know how to stop a car at 5 mph, and in this case, I was aware of the potential problem. We keep this car at our florida home, and it IS only driven a few thousand miles a year. The coincidence of these events IS compelling. I encourage you look into it. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(B)(6). *tr

- 10244507MINI electrical systems have continued to develop over the past few years. As a result, the demand on the batteries has increased. Breakdowns due to an empty battery or problems in the vehicles electrical system can have various causes, most of which are not due to the battery itself. For this reason, a battery replacement will permanently eliminate the problem only in the rarest of cases. The energy diagnosis test module helps to localize these causes. This document covers important information for the dealer on how to handle discharged battery complaints. Without performing the energy diagnosis test plan, the root cause of a discharged battery cannot be identified. In order to properly repair the vehicle the first time, it is very important that the diagnostic test plan is performed to completion; with all results taken into consideration.
