Description of the problem	Vehicle accelerated when put into reverse. Chrysler sent an "independant" inspector, but they will not share the report. In fact, chrysler lied about conducting the inspection. They told me the inspector could not do an evaluation because the vehicle was "disassembled". The dealer tells me the inspector spent two hours with a service technician and test drove the vehicle. I always get suspicious when someone lies to me. This requires follow up to make sure they are not hiding an unsafe defect in their vehicle.
