“Over night my parked SUV moved 10 feet backwards on a very slight up sloped parking space at my home. It was locked, in park and no ice underneath. I did not move it after first noticing incident, but it then moved another 2 feet this morning. Then later I got in and moved it back to original place, put it in park and it came to an abrupt stop. Then set parking brake so this doesn't happen again. Called south hills Toyota and they were not aware of any cause or problem. Please advise, rjm ps: no icy conditions involved. Smart key was in house on table. No one in household moved it.”
