When one of the back wheels is off the ground, the transmission
alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or slipping off
the jack, even if the vehicle is in P (Park) or 1 (First). To
prevent the vehicle from moving when you change a tire, be
sure the parking brake is set, then block the wheel (both
directions) that is diagonally opposite (other side and end of the
vehicle) to the tire that is being changed.
