| 1998 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:PARK/NEUTRAL START SWITCH | I HAD RENTED A 1998 JEEP CHEROKEE FROM THE HERTZ CAR RENTAL AT NEWARK, NJ AIRPORT ON 11/06/99. ON 11/26/99 I PULLED UP TO THE CLOSED GATE OF A WAREHOUSE COMPLEX IN NEW JERSEY. I STOPPED, PUT THE VEHICLE IN "PARK" GOT OUT AND OPENED THE GATE. I RE-ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE THROUGH THE GATE STOPPING ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE. I ONCE AGAIN PLACED THE VEHICLE IN "PARK" AND STEPPED FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO CLOSE THE GATE I HAD JUST DRIVEN THROUGH. I WAS STANDING AT ABOUT THE LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHT WALKING TOWARDS THE GATE TO CLOSE IT WHEN I NOTICED THE JEEP MOVING PAST ME TOWARDS THE GATE I HAD JUST DRIVEN THROUGH. I TURNED TO MY LEFT, TOWARDS THE JEEP TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I SAW IT MOVING IN REVERSE JUST AS THE OPEN DRIVER'S DOOR STRUCK ME KNOCKING ME TO THE GROUND. I ROLLED AWAY UNDER THE OPEN DOOR AS FAST AS I COULD SO I WOULDN"T BE RUN OVER BY THE FRONT TIRE. WHEN I MANAGED TO GET TO MY FEET I SAW THE GATE CATCH THE OPEN DRIVER'S DOOR AND FOLD IT AGAINST THE FRONT FENDER. THE JEEP WAS MOVING IN REVERSE AT ABOUT 10 MPH TOWARDS A HEAVILY TRAVELLED ROAD SO I RAN AFTER IT AS FAST AS I COULD. I WAS ABLE TO DIVE INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND JAM THE SHIFT LEVER INTO PARK JUST AS THE JEEP CRASHED INTO A PARKED CAR. I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED AND THOUGHT SINCE THE INCIDENT THAT I WAS SOMEHOW AT FAULT. I WAS NOT SERIOUSLY HURT, JUST SOME SCRAPES AND BRUISES AND TORN CLOTHES FROM BEING KNOCKED DOWN. IT SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME AND NOW I WONDER HOW MANY OTHER HERTZ JEEPS HAS THIS HAPPENED WITH.*AK |
