While driving a 2023 MINI Countryman on two separate occasions, the vehicle suddenly lost the ability to accelerate. Pressing the accelerator did not produce the expected power/response, creating a hazardous loss-of-propulsion condition in traffic; the car rolled to a stop each time. I was able to get the vehicle to a safe location, but the incidents could have resulted in a collision. There were *no* warning lights, warning messages, or other clear symptoms before the loss of acceleration. The vehicle had (unbeknownst to me, prior to my ownership) previously experienced an electrical/battery-related event after its parking lights were left on, followed by diagnostic fault codes. The vehicle was sold as a certified pre-owned vehicle. I am seeking complete pre-delivery diagnostic and repair records and a determination of whether the earlier electrical faults or another unresolved defect contributed to this incident. The vehicle has been/will be inspected by the selling dealer or manufacturer. The precise failed component is currently UNKNOWN. Documentation, including dealer correspondence and service records, is available upon request.
