My truck rolled 6 foot backwards in my driveway. The vehicle had been parked at 9 pm the previous evening and at 10:56 the truck began to roll it took almost a minute and rolled approximately 6 feet in reverse. The truck was in park locked and empty. I have a video from my home security cameras showing this. The response I got back from my dealer said that I should be sure to apply the parking brake.
