Hi we recently bought a nearly new 2025 Skoda Enjaq 2025 85X and three weeks ago the following happened to my wife on a flat car park:

I reversed into a parking space with empty spaces each side of the car. 
I elevated the P switch to red light position.  I opened driver door and screen was on Goodbye.
I got out of car and closed driver door.
I opened rear right passenger door to remove a bag.  Closed that door.
Remembered I needed to turn off Interior Monitoring as dog was in the boot.
Opened driver door and sat on seat planning to look at screen. Didn't touch the gear lever.
Car started to move very slowly forward.
I assume I tried to use brake pedal but too late to prevent contact with a car crossing in front.  My memory of the Skoda creeping forward is of course like a slow motion nightmare as it was so completely inexplicable, so presumably my reactions were slow and especially so in a relatively unfamiliar car doing something entirely unexpected.

Serious damage to our car and the vehicle passing in front of our car, Nobody hurt,

HAS ANYBODY HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE ESPECIALLY IN A CAR With SIMILAR SEAT ACTIVATION SWITCH

Welcome to the forum.

Sorry to hear of your mishap.

Can you clarify, was the vehicle driving forward on the electric motor - or was it rolling forward down a slope?

added information

It was on the flat and driving on the electric motor

Could you have caught the gear switch with your elbow / clothing as you got in knocking it into D by accident and leading it to creep forward?

thanks Skomaz and Warrior193. My wife is certain that she did not catch the gear stick. Thats the puzzle. Could have brushed the brake pedal but it shouldn't move without the gear being engaged. She is not sure whether the door was ajar (apparently auto hold doesn't work with door open)

The only EV I've driven recently was an Outlander PHEV - to get that to move required the EPB to be released, the shift to be moved out of park and the throttle to be pressed - unless the Enyaq controls are completely different, it's difficult to see how all three conditions can be operated accidentally.

@Warrior193 A PHEV is not an EV and EV,s can and are different. None i have had required any touching of the EPB to disengage to move on once the brake pedal touched , drive (or Reverse) selected and then the accelerator touched. (PS. As far as Autohold and not EPB, then as long as the car switched on an in D or R then touching the accelerator will having you moving, Autohold is just acting as though you are holding it on the brake pedal without you holding it on the brake pedal but activated Autohold by stopping touching the brake pedal. 4 corners are braked unlike with the EPB.)

Thanks for that - but are you saying that there are still three separate actions required for vehicle to move - touch brake pedal (releases auto-hold); move gear selector; then touch throttle pedal?

On my Enyaq there is no "p" on the gear selector, P is engaged automatically when I set the parking brake and the car is removed from "D". E.G if i stop at the lights and set the handbrake I have to press the brake pedal and move the selector back to "D" to move. It also sets the handbrake and goes "Park" if I get out.

When I get in, to move I have to press the brake pedal and "D" "B" or "R" to move. It will move without the accelerator pedal pressed if "Auto hold" is not set if you select "D" "B" or "R". But has never put itself in gear just by getting in.

There is a procedure to disengage the EPB for pushing but it is not simple and requires confirming on the screen before getting out to leave the car in "rollaway" mode

So the only way the vehicle can move on the motor by simply touching the brake pedal is by NOT setting the EPB - AND leaving the gear selector in D or R, then touching the throttle pedal - is that correct?
