 Description of the problemMy jeep was on a bluff in park but running! I got out to take pictures i walked about 15 feet in front of my car! Suddenly i heard a noise and my jeep was rolling right towards me! I had to leap out of the way or it would have run me down! Luckily a boulder stopped it from going over the bluff! I had to leap out of the way and suffered injuries to my wrist, back, hip, and leg! When i got up my two front tires were about 3 inches off of the ground! I got in and put it in low 4 wheel drive! It didn't come off of the rock! I tried again and put it also in snow mode and was able to get it off! I have never been so terrified in my life! Being in the boundary waters ther was no cell phone service and had to think fast! I love my jeep and have driven them for years but would hate to have this happen to anyone else! My jeep now has a bad bumper and grill! I haven't had to make a claim to my insurance for many years! Jeep needs to fix this problem before people are killed like before! I would love a reply on what jeep will do! It's hard to trust my car now! I went the next day with a friend and took pictures of how far the rock was moved which was over a yard! It was a very terrifying experience!
