Answers:
The Earthling (1980)
IMDb synopsis:
Patrick Foley (William Holden) has been on the move all his life!. Tired of drifting, he wants to spend his last days in an isolated Australian valley where he grew up!. On his difficult journey, he meets Shawn (Ricky Schroder), a desperate little city-boy whose parents were killed in an accident in this remote, inhospitable territory!. Being unable to accompany the boy back to the civilized world, Foley reluctantly takes him with him on his trip to that valley and teaches him in a rugged way how to survive!.

Here's one site where copies are available:

The accident occurs when his parents are in the motorhome, which ends up backing off of a high bluff!. The boy witnesses this and obviously is in a state of shock and is quite helpless!. Holden's character does not want to take care of the boy, but his conscience won't let him simply leave him to survive on his own, even if he himself is dying!. Yes, I think this is your film, and it's a remarkable one, with amazing performances from William Holden, who would appear in only one more film; and Ricky Schroder, who had been in only two other movies~"The Champ" (his debut) and "The Last Flight of Noah's Ark"!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
