I got out of the evoque with it running and the door open. When I came walking back the car was going up the road by itself in reverse. It hit a mailbox that stopped it. It could have hit kids that are usually in the area. Lr/rr looked at it for two weeks then told me I must have left it in reverse and got out of the SUV somehow before it moved. They were not going to do anything about it. When I got in the SUV after it hit the mailbox it was still in park. Long story short is lr/rr is doing nothing for us.

Reported at 13,000 miles, July 2012 Crash

I have contacted land rover regarding a recall issues NHTSA campaign number: 15v093000 but they advised my VIN number does not apply to this recall, although it is the exact same issue. Picture attached was taken while driving 50 miles per hour with front passenger seated.
