Theodore Sturgeon. Short Story, same name, and the basis of the movie.

Nope, not that story.

This had toasters, cars, buses all becoming 'aware' and deciding to
destroy the enemy (humans). Perhaps KillDozer was based on the original
story. It (the original short story) is buried in my books that are
still boxed up when I moved houses five years ago. Possibly written by a
one-time author.

There are never enough bookshelves!
