My husbands 2005 Dodge Ram work truck has on 3 occasions taken itself out of park and gone into reverse. The first time was at a rest stop when he left the vehicle and I was in the passenger seat. The truck started going in reverse into the path of a semi pulling into the rest stop. I actually fractured a bone jumping from the passenger seat to driver seat to save myself from being hit by the semi! It was upsetting but we thought it was a random fluke.
The second time it happened he had put the truck in park and got out to unlock and open the gate to his construction site. The vehicle jumped out of park and in reverse rolled out into the street and was clipped by a passing car. My husband ran to catch it and finally got the vehicle stopped. That time our insurance paid for the repair to the body of the vehicle but the Dodge dealer swore this was not an issue and they had no fix for it.
It has now done it for a third time and I feel this vehicle is a death trap for my husband.
