Owner complaint summary

WHEN USING THE BRAKE AUTO HOLD I STEPPED ON THE GAS WHILE SCRATCHING MY SIDE AT THE SAME TIME TO CROSS THE ROAD. I ACCIDENTALLY UNBUCKLED MY SEAT BELT WHICH THEN CAUSED THE BRAKE AUTO HOLD TO DISENGAGE AND AUTOMATICALLY APPLY THE PARKING BRAKE. THIS CAUSED MY CAR TO STOP DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I COULD NOT DISENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE UNTIL I REBUCKLED MY SEAT BELT.
