The vehicle was placed in reverse but it would not move. It was placed back in park and left running in my garage. I got out of the vehicle in order to look over the extierior for problems; none found. I then kicked/pushed the back bumper and immediately heard a clunk, the vehicle was thrown into reverse and headed at me. It caused a great deal of damage to the vehicle, my other vehicle parked in the garage and my house. I was almost run over by this driver-less vehicle. I do have a witness that saw the vehicle charging at me.
