Description of the problem	The car was parked on a steep incline while i closed a gate behind me to a gated driveway. When i got back in the car and put the car in drive, i took my foot off of the brake and before i could get it to the gas pedal the car immediately rolled back and into the gate. The car released as if it was a standard shift car that needed a clutch and slammed into the gate. I have taken the car to other safe spots that are on hills and found that this car can not hold a stopped position on an incline.
