The vehicle remained in Neutral despite the shift indicator showing Park. The component may be available for inspection upon request.  With no parking pawl engaged, the unoccupied vehicle rolled freely and ran over a bystander who was assisting with the stalled vehicle. She sustained catastrophic injuries including full-thickness degloving of both kneecaps, degloving of the dorsal hand, and a massive hip hematoma requiring trauma-level hospital care. The vehicle also struck a second person nearby, who was later hospitalized with injuries consistent with being run over by the vehicle.  The incident was investigated by law enforcement. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by a dealer or Ford specifically for the linkage condition.
