It's actually not a bad idea really, I seldom go to malls as I dislike shopping as much as my wife enjoys it, but the amount of time that is spent finding a park can be a real pain in the rear.

It's illegal to leave a car on the road with the engine running while it is unattended, must be illegal to let the car drive off on it's own.
How you deal with paying for the parking.
How do you find it when your phone goes flat?
How do you summon it if your signal goes?
And as for the stress of parking - an unmanned car driving around the car park at that speed would cause me a lot of stress!

None of those are insurmountable at all. It's really not that hard to drop off/pick up the car by the ticket machine to pay for the parking. If all else fails and you didn't charge your phone you can still drive the thing.
To be honest though the stacking garages are the way of the future for big car parks, much more space efficient, easily disguised, and quicker than driving around and around looking for a park.
