I started my jeep, noticed my hatch was not closed, got out while it was running, the second I closed my driver door, my jeep went into reverse on its own, and kept accelerating higher, this vehicle took off very aggressively, luckily my wife was in the passenger seat, she put it in natural, and shut the car off before anything was struck, now due to I believe the rapid acceleration it runs horribly when I put it in drive. This jeep is an 2003 , well broke in and maintained, there's no other reason as to why it "became self aware" I have a lot of vehicle knowledge and this is virtually and unfathomably impossible , please review every aspect of this vehicles complaints as this is very unsafe

Hydraulic cooling fan quit. Can run direct power from battery to solenoid and the hydraulic fan solenoid works but does not work when vehicle is running. Caused vehicle to over heat and need to be towed off the highway.
