NHTSA Complaint #10342996 — 2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

MY JEEP WAS PARKED FACING DOWN A HILL IN A PARKING LOT. I WENT TO GET INTO IT, STARTED IT AND THEN EXITED THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS HOT AND I WAS LETTING THE AC GET GOING. AS I EXITED THE VEHICLE IT STARTED TO ROLL DOWN THE HILL AND PROCEEDED TO HIT 2 PARKED CARS , JUMP A CURB THROWING MY SISTER IN LAW OUT AS SHE WAS NOT ALL THE WAY IN THEN CONTINUED DOWN THE HILL UNTIL IT HIT A TREE AND STOPPED. I NEVER TOOK IT OUT OF PARK AND WHEN WE GOT TO IT THE GEAR SHIFT WAS IN NEUTRAL. MY SISTER SUFFERED A BROKEN CLAVICLE, TORN LIGAMENTS IN HER KNEE, SEVERELY BRUISED RIBS AND PELVIS AND MY JEEP IS TOTALED. APPARENTLY THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM AS I HAVE BEEN DOING MY RESEARCH. WHEN WILL THIS BE STOPPED AND HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE OR BE INJURED? *TR
