Consumer Description

ON TWO SEPARATE CRASHES CAR CAME OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE. FIRST TIME BROKE MIRROR OFF OF DRIVERS DOOR, THOUGHT MAYBE DIDN'T HAVE IT ALL THE WAY IN PARK UNTIL ONE WEEK LATER CAR WAS IN PARK GOT OUT WHILE CAR WAS RUNNING WITH TWO PASSENGERS INSIDE AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES WITH ME STANDING IN THE DOOR CAR KICKED OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE RUNNING ME DOWN. DOOR GOT STUCK IN DIRT AND BEND BACKWARDS CRUSHING THE FENDER. CALLED ONE DODGE DEALER AND THEY DENIED THERE BEING A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION AND WAS TOLD IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR CAR TO KICK OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE. CALLED A SECOND DEALER AND WAS TOLD YES THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL AND HE LOOKED UP MY VIN # AND SAID MY CAR HAD BEEN REPAIRED. MY HUSBAND SAID THAT IT WAS POSSIBLE TO TAKE CAR OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE WITHOUT THE KEY BEING IN AND UNLOCKED. CAR CAN ALSO BE BUMPED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. *JB
