Description of the problem	On the morning of thursday 3/6/14, as i was leaving for work, i stopped my jeep grand cherokee at the end of my driveway to pick up my newspaper. (i thought) i put the car in park and exited my vehicle. As i was picking up the paper, i realized the car was rolling backward, down the remainder of my driveway and across my cul-de-sac. As i ran beside the car i saw the car was in reverse. I was certain i had put the car in park! Realizing that nothing was going to stop the car until it hit something (options were a fire hydrant or my neighbor's house,) i foolishly attempted to jump in the car to stop it. I missed.... Badly. After trying to jump into a moving vehicle and missing, i fell to the street. I was on my back. At that moment i knew that i was going to be run over. I did not know where i was in relation to the car and, in that split second, prepared for the worst. I counted myself "lucky" when the vehicle "only" ran over my left lower leg, ankle and foot! The vehicle came to rest, luckily, in a snowbank across the street from my house (picture attached). Aaa was called to pull the car off the snowbank, as it high-centered. I sought medical treatment. I had a badly sprained ankle and damage to my left foot arch. I have not walked correctly since and continue to have pain in the arch of my foot and knees. While i told my neighbors and circle of friends, i did not notify my car dealer as i thought the incident was my negligence by not putting the car in park. It has only been through the recent media that i realize that i am another victim of this vehicle's gear shift defect.
