Description of the problem | The vehicle had been pulled out of the garage put in park, turned off but did have the key left in it. This was intended to only take a moment while we moved a lawn tractor into the garage ahead of the parking spot for the minivan. While we were busy moving the lawn tractor the minivan rolled about 30 yards away from where it had been parked. It settled on some rocks resulting in damage to the underside of the vehicle. The concerning part of this incident was that the van was still in park and turned off when it landed on the rocks. I have brought this incident to the attention of chrysler and after their inspection of the vehicle they found "no evidence of a malfunction which would cause the vehicle to move by itself." i am very concerned that this could happen again possibly resulting in bodily injury or damage to property. |
