That correspondence stated that my 2022 Subaru Outback\u2019s inspection of May 21, 2024, did not reveal any manufacturing defect that caused the unanticipated acceleration of my vehicle on April 26, 2024.  That inspection was conducted by a third-party engineering firm. In amplification of this,  the following is provided: \u2022 My  vehicle on 26 April 2024, at approximately at 0845 AM experienced unanticipated acceleration, in my garage where it had been parked overnight.  It was a cool morning.  This occurred without any direct body movement from me, whatsoever.  The fast forward motion I directly experienced in my vehicle was like if one put their gas pedal to the floor.  The vehicle crashed  about five feet into a garage shelf with me simultaneously providing braking.  This directly caused about $3,000 worth of damage to the vehicle, and I will probably incur higher insurance cost because of this. \u2022Environmental factors have been a contributing factor in  unanticipated acceleration in the past. \u2022Time to extract the data from the EDR in my vehicle took almost one month for SOA to complete the inspection (accident occurred on April 26 and the vehicle inspection took place on May 21). \u2022Starlink, Subaru\u2019s automatic collision notification system, did not activate on 26 April 2024, the day of the accident. \u2022\u201cAs a rule of thumb, if the crash is sufficient to cause the air bags to deploy the EDR data are usually captured.\u201d  From the National Highway Transportation Safety Board\u2019s website under, \u201cEDR Q & A).  My vehicle\u2019s air bags did not deploy, and another key word is \u201cusually\u201d.  \u2022On May 16, 2024, five days before the inspection was completed on my vehicle I wrote the CEO a letter.  Part of that letter is quoted, verbatim, for your review: \u201cIt is now my understanding, according to SOA, that what happened to me is referred to as unanticipated acceleration.
