What a story, a sad event for some young people ....
As a rule do not trust your parking brakes or your transmission... always steer your wheels uphill or against something.... why... in 2004 I bought a wrangler for one of my kids... the price was good... $900 (never burnt any oil at 190Kmiles) ... 0n the first week, the wrangler rolled off and jumped the sidewalk gutter -soft gutter in that city- and landed in a house.... nobody was hurt but the driver's pride... fast forward... I found out after the wrangler was sold that there was a recall for a failure in the wrangler parking brake mechanism. Remember whoever was killed by a rolling 201x grand cherokee with the autoparking brake system, these new electric parking brakes are really confusing on first use...
As for auto trans... it is a mere large nail that secure your vehicle in park... trees or rocks are a better option...
