What owners wrote
Car was idling in park. Push button start/stop was pushed to shut off engine and at that instant, car was released from park, rolled backwards into tree, injuring right front passenger. No one in driver's seat.
I was driving at 45 miles an hour through town and without any warning the car stopped accelerating and then a loud bang. The transfer case detached right off the transmission and the transmission was damaged in the process.
