Car was parked. floor shifter would not come out of park, ignition key would not come out of ignition switch. ac distribution housing broken,vehicle wheels bent from normal driving. dealer said key, ignition switch, floor shifter, other associated parts need replacement.. over $7000 repair, wheels not included.
Vehicle shift interlock latch is broken. the latch allows the vehicle to shift from gear to gear or will prevent the shifting. after researching the issue, it was learned the piece was a recall piece (k39) but according to dodge only on certain vehicles and our vehicle does not meet the standards required for recall. although dodge just simply ships the same item to various location across the world, our vehicle was built in the area that does not afford recall status; eventhough it was built with the exact same faulty part.

Vehicle would not shift out of park. car was taken to dodge dealer where other recalls that were associated with vin were addressed (i.e. driver and passenger airbag) the dealer was not able to address the interlock lever as it was not in their system and they directed me to contact chrysler to address the discrepancy. chrysler had issued "customer satisfaction notification k39" in february of 2011 that addressed this transmission shifter interlock lever. the notification indicates there are about 28,800 vehicles that may be affected and provides instructions on getting it repaired if your vehicle build date falls between june 25,2007 through september 21,2007 (my vehicle was built 3 months prior to this window) and because of this does not populate into the dealerconnect global recall system. it is my logic that the dates established in the notification do not fully encompass the issue being addressed, and because of these hard dates that dictate whether your vehicle is affected (regardless of whether or not you are stuck in park) , i have had no progress in dealing with chrysler group 'recall' assistance center because to them, on paper, my car is "not affected". for ...

I've had many issues wrong with my car. the first complaint i would like to express is how the car shuts off on me without warning. while driving on the freeway and on busy streets, my car will shut off, but it will start right back up. this is a dangerous hazard and safety concern. i've taken my car to the gresham dodge (on ne burnside) dealership to address this issue (503-666-2277). i was told "if it happens again, bring it back" there was no concern with dodge that they were sending a dangerous vehicle back out on the road, that could potentially cause an accident. this was an issue that needed to be addressed now, not later. dodge never solved that issue. furthermore, my car was stuck in the park position on the eve of 4-18-16. i tried to get it into gear, without any success. i had to call for a tow truck. while waiting for a tow, i decided to google dodge chargers stuck in park. on youtube, there were so many others with the same issue. they had video of how to get the car out of park. you had to pry the covering off of ...
