1998 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE — POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:PARK/NEUTRAL START INTERLOCK SWITCH

VEHICLE WAS PUT INTO PARK; IT WAS NIGHTTIME AND DARK OUT. I STARTED TO STEP OUT OF THE CAR AND THE CAR ROLLED BACKWARDS. I WAS STRUCK BY THE OPEN DOOR AND THROWN TO THE GROUND. I FOUND MYSELF FACE DOWN IN THE DIRT AND LOOKED UP TO SEE THE JEEP ROLLING AWAY FROM ME WITH MY CHILD STILL IN THE CAR IN HER BOOSTER. I RAN AFTER THE CAR WHICH STOPPED WHEN THE OPEN DOOR CAUGHT A POST AND BENT FORWARD AND THE REAR OF THE JEEP HIT ANOTHER POST. I WAS TAKEN TO AN URGENT CLINIC AND GOT STITCHES ON MY FACE AND TREATED FOR OTHER ABRASIONS AND STRAINS. ON TWO OTHER OCCASSIONS SINCE THEN MY CAR STARTED MOVING BACKWARDS WHEN IN PARK BUT I WAS STILL IN THE CAR AND WAS NOT HURT. *AK
