 Description of the problemMy jeep is rolling backwards when in park, wheels turned all the way to the right and emergency brake engaged. This has happened about 10 times since i purchased my jeep in july 2015. On jan 4th 2016 it rolled about 10 - 15 feet down a driveway and came to a rest in the gutter. It happened again on jan 7, 2015. The jeep was parked on a slight incline in driveways with about 1/4 inch on snow/slush. The tires are still locked in the right position both times when it came to a stop in the gutters. After the last incident i found a little driveway and parked on it. I again turned the tires all the way to the right and engaged the emergency brake and i sat and waited. 7 minutes later it started to slide down the driveway it sled about for about 5 - 8 feet before i applied the brake. This inclined driveways have been about 05 -10 feet inclines. I have had a 1996 and 2006 jeep over the past 25 years and have never had a vehicle slide from a parked position or down a snow packed hill. I took it to the dealer and they told me to get new snow tires. This is very scary to me. If children are walking to school or joggers or a passing car someone could be seriously hurt or worse. This serious matter needs to be handled promptly.
