ON 8-4-01, I PLACED MY 1999 JEEP IN PARK AND LEFT THE SUV TO GET DIRECTIONS ON PARKING AT A SPORTING EVENT. A FRIEND OF MINE, WAS IN A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND LOOKED BACK AND NOTICED THAT MY JEEP WAS BACKING UP ALL BY ITSELF? I RAN BACK, CAUGHT IT AND LUCKLY MY 2YR OLD SON AND NO ONE AROUND WAS PHYSICALLY INJURED OR WORSE. NO DAMAGE TO ANY OTHER VEHICLE WAS CAUSED, BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS OCCURED AND NEVER HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST. I CALLED JEEP AND ALL THEY COULD TELL ME WAS TO REPORT THIS TO YOU AND THAT THEY ARE COOPERATING WITH YOUR AGENCY ON THIS ISSUE. AT THIS TIME, THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME. ??

VEHICLE WAS IDLING IN PARK WHEN DRIVER SIDE DOOR CLOSED, VEHICLE JUMPED INTO REVERSE AND STOPPING AFTER CONTACT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. *AK
