Consumer was able to remove key out of the ignition without gear fully engaged into park. About 2 hours later, 6 year old child went into vehicle to get a cd out of vehicle when he accidently hit the gear selecter into reverse, causing child to panic and jump out, vehicle rolled over child's leg. Gears can be moved without key in the ignition and without applying brakes.
