| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On certain pickup trucks equipped with diesel engines and automatic transmissions, in an attempt to exit the vehicle quickly without shutting off the engine and removing the key, the driver may inadvertently leave the automatic transmission shift control in indicated reverse. consequence: this error is an unintended action that may result in a lack of transmission park pawl engagement and possibly delayed rearward movement of the vehicle. remedy: dealers will perform a software modification to equip these vehicles with an out-of-park alarm. owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403. dodge is saving a bundle of money by going this route.....instead of fixing that slippery indent between park and reverse selector positions we have to live with a horn blowing. i sometimes need to open my door while backing up. now i have to listen to a horn blowing as well as my neighbors. tell chrysler there are putting a band aid over an open would that needs stitching. *nm |
