description: I RENTED A 2013 FUSION TO TAKE MY SON BACK TO COLLEGE. ON THE WAY HOME I HEARD A NOISE UNDER THE CAR , I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT PLACED THE CAR IN PARK BUT LEFT IT RUNNING . AS I WAS BENT DOWN LOOKING BENEATH THE CAR IT WENT INTO REVERSE AND STARTED ACCELERATING BACKWARD. MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS WITH ME HAD THE PASSENGER DOOR OPEN TALKING TO ME AND WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO BACK UP THE DOOR KNOCKED ME OVER AND DRAGGED ME BENEATH IT FOR APPROXIMATELY 4-6 FEET BEFORE SHE COULD GET THE CAR TO STOP. I HAD SEVERAL BRUISES ON MY RIGHT SIDE ALONG WITH BRUISED RIBS WHERE THE DOOR GOT STUCK ON THEM WHEN IT DRAGGED ME. I ALSO INJURED MY LEFT ELBOW WHEN I FELL TO THE GROUND WHICH HURT FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND I COULD NOT PUT ANY KIND OF PRESSURE ON IT FOR THAT TIME. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO THE RENTAL COMPANY AND FORD. THE DIAGNOSTICS REPORT FROM THE RENTAL COMPANY CAME BACK INDICATING THERE WERE NO ISSUES WITH THE CAR. FORD RESPONDED WITH AN E-MAIL TO CONTINUE TALKING TO THE RENTAL COMPANY AS ONLY THEY COULD HELP ME. *TR
