Vehicle was parked on a hill without parking brake on, car was running, consumer accidently hit gear shift, and consumer 's body was not all the way in truck when vehicle rolled backwards, trapping consumer between truck and door, and rear shoulder was ran over. Consumer stated there was no shift interlocking system.
I had bought my 1999 dodge dakota in 2001, less than 1 year of purchasing this truck, I lost oil pressure, returned the truck to dealer where they tried to replace my motor with a motor that had more miles, this did not happen. Then another year later, gears in my transmission were spent where I had to pay a few thousand dollars to have it repaired. Truck has been sitting for a year, cause of engine knocking again, with no oil pressure, also replaced the oil pump, still no pressure.
