 Description of the problemI had the truck off, in park and e-brake engaged. A friend of mine was watching my child while i was pulled away and she had let him play with steering wheel (he loves playing with steering wheels). All of a sudden i hear the sitter screaming and turn around and saw my truck rolling down the inclined driveway with my toddler still in drivers seat and door open. I did what any sane mother would and tried to run to jump in and hit brake but ended up being dragged by the truck after it hit a pothole before crossing into a major road. When the truck finally came to a rest after crashing into a large fence with trees behind it, i managed to get my child out of truck and noticed the e-brake was still engaged. The truck has not been taken to a shop yet but will be soon. This is the only incidence of this malfunction with my truck that i know of and ive had it since 2009. However, i have previously had brake system issues where my brake lines popped off while i was driving down the highway. This really needs to be checked out. I now have a cervical spine injury, sprained wrist, sprained ankle, severe road burn where i was dragged, and multiple bruises, knots and scrapes. We were just lucky it happened after 5 o clock traffic had cleared out. There is a police report filed and my doctors have told me i need to look into getting an attorney. *tt
