Description of the problem	I am a food delivery driver. I was making a delivery to a regular customer. I was outside his side door, talking. I was out of my 2014 kia rio for approximately 1 and 1/2 to 2 minutes, talking with the customer. Suddenly, i am on the ground. I look to see a tires run over my foot. The customer chased after the car, it crashed intoo his parked car. That's when i noticed it was my car that ran me over. We called the oak creek police. Both the customer and i believe--due to the length of time i was out of the vehicle and talking to him--that the car (which was running) popped out of park and drove forward. I was approaximately 10-15 feet from the car when i was run over and his car was approximately 30 feet from my car. I went to the hospital; they believe i have a fracture to the head of my fibula (they only x-rayed from my right kneee down because that was what looked the worst). More injuries were suffered. I have to do a follow up with an orthopedic specialist on nov 13th. I went back to the scene with my vid camera. Parked in the spot i was when the accident happened, took my foot off the brake and left it in drive. The car auotmaically accelerated. If it would have been my mistake and i accidentally left car in drive, it seems as if my car would have beat me to the customers door and i definitely would have noticed my car following me. No police report as of yet, but even the customer told the officer he believed the car had to have been in park and that it had slipped out of gear.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
