That sounds like the **ZF 8HP70 monostable shifter rollaway** issue — it's a known defect on Jeep/Dodge/Chrysler Grand Cherokee/Charger/300 from 2014–2015.

Confusing monostable shifter design caused vehicles to roll away when drivers thought they were in Park, leading to multiple injuries (including actor Anton Yelchin's death) and a recall.
