What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 hyundai veloster. While the vehicle was in park, the contact started the vehicle, but the gear did not shift into drive or reverse. Also, the check engine indicator illuminated. The contact turned the vehicle off and, while proceeding to exit, the vehicle moved and pinned the contact under the door. The vehicle then rolled back over the contact and stopped approximately twenty feet without impact. The contact sustained injuries that did not require medical attention.
The car (hyundai veloster 2013, manual transmission, production date may 3, 2012) was parked on a small hill, with the hand brake pulled all the way. Apparently the hand brake failed, the car rolled downhill hitting a fence.
