Description of the problem | I started my dodge durango with remote start to cool the car down before my family got in the vehicle. My wife, sister-in-law, and boys got in the vehicle as i walked towards the driver side. My wife reached over from the passenger side to start the vehicle and turn on all electrical components. Once the start button was pressed the vehicle disengaged from park and started moving in reverse reaching approximately 20mph until my wife jumped on to the driver seat and was able to hit the brakes. The shift was in the park position so all she could do was turn off the vehicle. Thankfully, there was no injury done to my family or pedestrians. My durango did hit two parked vehicles that my insurance paid to repair. I called chrysler to file a complaint that same day and they requested for the vehicle to be dropped off at a dodge dealership for investigation. A month after the incident i receive a letter from chrysler stating that no electrical problem was found and the vehicles operation meets chrysler standards. |
