Upon starting vehicle, gear automatically went from park to reverse, causing an accident. Vehicle knocked driver down, rolling over both legs. Vehicle experienced a rollover.
First of all, I only have 39,100 miles on my jeep liberty. Having said that, on the date listed below it was found that my jeep had a faulty valve spring in the 2nd cylinder. Cost me quite a bit of money to repair. How in the world does this happen to a brand new car with only a little over 39,000 miles on it? Sound like faulty parts to me.
