Consumer Description

I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR TWO WEEKS PARKING IT ON A FLAT STREET. I PULLED IT IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR THE FIRST TIME (WHICH HAS A SLIGHT SLOPE DOWN TOWARD THE SIDEWALK/CITY STREET BEHIND). SET THE ROTARY DIAL TO PARK AND EXITED. I CAME BACK 8 HOURS LATER AND THE VEHICLE HAD ROLLED ABOUT 12 FEET DOWN ACROSS THE SIDEWALK TO THE EDGE OF THE CITY STREET. I PULLED THE VEHICLE BACK UP THE DRIVEWAY AND THIS TIME SET THE PARKING BRAKE BEFORE EXITING. I STOOD FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AND OBSERVED A CREAKING SOUND AS THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SLOWLY ROLL AGAIN. AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR IT HAD AGAIN ROLLED 1-2 FEET DOWN THE DRIVEWAY EVEN WITH THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED. I PUT SPLIT FIREWOOD BEHIND THE BACK WHEELS TO PREVENT IT FROM ROLLING FURTHER.
