NHTSA Complaint #11342303 — 2016 FORD FUSION

MY 2016 FORD FUSION TITANIUM ROLLED AWAY FROM WHERE IT WAS PARKED ON A FLAT CONCRETE SURFACE. IT WENT DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, ACROSS THE STREET, AND APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 40 FEET INTO A WOODEN AREA BEFORE TREES STOPPED IT. THE CAR NEEDS THE KEY IN CLOSE ENOUGH PROXIMITY TO START. THE KEY WAS IN MY PURSE IN MY HOUSE. THE CAR, WHEN ON, NEEDS TO HAVE THE BRAKE COMPRESSED TO TAKE IT FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR PARK TO REVERSE OR PARK TO ANY OTHER GEAR. SO, NO KEY. NO COMPRESSED BRAKE. NO MANUAL CHANGE OF GEARS. YET, IT STILL ROLLED AWAY. SOMETHING HAPPENED WITH THE GEAR SHIFTER. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THE KEY IN OR BY THE CAR. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STARTED. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE. AND IT GOES OUT OF PARK TO ANY OTHER GEAR. NO KEY. NOT ON. NO BRAKE. I HAD THE NC HIGHWAY PATROL COME AND THE OFFICER DID A REPORT. I HAVE CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY.
