It must be me , but if I left the engine running with car in neutral without the handbrake on I would expect it to roll away (on a hill) Do it now ! Your a long time dead !!

I assume it means the fault was the parking pawl was only engaging once the engine was stopped even though it had been shifted to P. Sad

I know a guy that sells Jeeps, he told me that the actor in the Star trek film was killed because of this fault. My mate loves the Grand Cherokee, i'm currently looking at changing my car and sat in one but it was way too big! Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

I actually looked at a Jeep Grand wotsit in a moment of madness and really didn't like it at all. Build was poor, and the fittings seemed low quality.

That said, preregistered ones were coming in around 30k, a huge saving on new.
