Consumer Description

SLIPPED OUT OF PARK, TRUCK WAS ON WHEEL RAMPS BUT NOT FULLY ON FLAT PART OF RAMP. I WAS CHANGING THE OIL ON THE VEHICLE. IT WAS ON THE RAMPS FOR AROUND 15 MINUTES AND ROLLED BACKWARDS. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN PARK AND LUCKILY I WAS NOT UNDER IT AT THE TIME. NOT MY SMARTEST MOVE NO BLOCKS BEHIND WHEELS AND NO PARKING BRAKE ON. I DOUBLE CHECKED AND VEHICLE STARTED AND WAS STILL IN PARK WITHOUT ME TOUCHING THE ROTARY DIAL. THIS SCARED ME ENOUGH TO BE CONCERNED. IGNITION OFF AND KEYS WERE IN OFF POSITION IN THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 72000 MILES AND I HAVE OWNED IT FOR AROUND 50000 OF THOSE MILES. I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE ROTARY DIAL.
