NHTSA Complaint #11120107 — 2013 RAM 2500

ON APRIL 21, 2018, I PULLED MY 2013 RAM 2500 4X4 OUT OF MY BARN TO GO SHOPPING. THERE WAS ABOUT 3 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW ON THE GROUND. I PUT THE TRUCK INTO PARK AND GOT OUT TO CLOSE THE BARN DOOR. AFTER ABOUT 2 STEPS AWAY FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR, THE TRUCK STARTED TO ROLL. I TURNED AROUND A TRIED TO GET TO THE CONTROLS TO STOP THE TRUCK. I WAS KNOCKED DOWN BY THE TRUCK AND RUN OVER BY THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE AND WHEEL. I SUSTAINED INJURIES TO MY LEFT LEG. I HAVE FOUND THE SHIFTER CAN INDICATE THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK WHEN IN FACT THE SHIFTER IS SITTING ON THE DETENT BETWEEN PARK AND REVERSE. I REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES (FCA). FCA ISSUED A RECALL OVER UNINTENDED ROLLING OF THEIR TRUCKS. FCA KNOWS THERE IS AN ISSUE YET THEY WANT TO SWEEP IT UNDER THE CARPET. I WOULD NOT FEEL RIGHT IF THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS NOT ADDRESS AS THE NEXT PERSON MAY NOT BE AS LUCKY AS I WAS IF THEIR TRUCK EXPERIENCES UNINTENDED ROLLING. I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF LIFE AND EXTENSIVE PROPERTY DAMAGE. A VIDEO OF THIS CAN BE FOUND ON YOUTUBE @ HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=E_NUGO1EMA4 I HAVE STILL PICTURES IF NEEDED.
