“When the pickup is parked on a slight incline in first,second,third gear, if you do not cram on the brake as hard as you can the truck will roll backwards! If you don't have brake you watch truck roll backwards. The Ford hotline said this normal. I have drove manuel transmissions all my life,this is not normal! My truck has rolled over 20 feet out into the street.I am concerned that it could pop out of gear and cause a accident or run over someone! The brake system is not good enough and the transmission or rearend has a problem.”
