Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Truck is only a couple months old and multiple times now the transmission has failed to engage. Each time it's in drive, and on a slop or hill and when brake pedal is released with the truck in drive it starts clicking and grinding and rolls backwards, unable to engage and continue on. Truck requires that you put it into park and back into drive before you can proceed. Last time this occured i nearly hit a child in the street as it rolled backwards and would not engage even though it was still in drive. It's been into the shop, nothing they could do and i have emailed toyota. Nobody wants to help and this issue continues. This is a serious safety issue when transmission will not engage and starts rolling backward before you even realize what is happening. Even if there is no hill-holding option with this transmission, the truck should not click and grind in gear once you put foot on the gas pedal to attempt to continue the drive forward.
