2004 FORD F-150 — POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:COLUMN SHIFT

MY 2004 FORD F150 WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND AC ON MAX. I LEFT IT RUNNING WHILE I UNLOADED THE BACK SEAT OF SEVERAL ITEMS. I THEN CLOSED THE DOORS AND PROCEEDED TO UNLOAD 4 CASES OF WATER FROM THE BED OF THE TRUCK. I MADE 5 TRIPS FROM THE TRUCK TO THE HOUSE AND WHEN I RETURNED AND PUT THE TAILGATE BACK UP MY TRUCK TOOK OFF TOWARDS MY HOUSE AND IMPACTED THE BRICK WALL OF THE GARARGE (APPROX 20 TO 25 FOOT DISTANCE). I TRIED TO RUN FROM THE BACK AND OPEN THE DOOR AND APPLY THE BRAKE BUT THE TRUCK HIT THE HOUSE AS I GOT THE DOOR OPEN. THE SHIFTER WAS STILL IN PARK. I APPLYED THE BRAKE AND PUT IT IN REVERSE AND MOVED IT BACK TO REVEAL THE DAMAGE. MY WIFE AND I TESTED THIS AFTERWARDS TO ATTEMPT TO DUPLICATE THIS WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO REPRODUCE IT. MY HOUSE AND THE TRUCK ARE DAMAGED AND I FEEL THAT THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO REALLY HURT SOMEONE. AFTER BEING TOLD OF THIS SITE BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY I SEE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER PEOPLE AND ONE HAS ALMOST AN IDENTICAL STORY. SEE COMPLAINT 10081205. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN ANY INFORMATION YET.
