Consumer Description

WHEN MY HUSBAND WENT TO LEAVE WORK OUR AVENGER (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION) WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. FORTUNATELY A CO-WORKER IS HANDY WITH CARS AND TOOK APART THE GEAR SHIFT PANEL AND SHOWED MY HUSBAND THAT THERE WAS A PINK PIECE BROKEN AND THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO MOVE THIS PIECE BY HAND TO SHIFT GEARS. WE WERE TOLD AT ORIELY'S AUTO PARTS THAT THIS PIECE IS CALLED A SHIFT LOCK AND IS NOT CARRIED AT THOSE TYPES OF STORES. AS THIS HAPPENED YESTERDAY (SATURDAY) WE WON'T BE ABLE TO CONTACT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP UNTIL MONDAY TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH IT WILL COST TO REPAIR. AFTER DOING ONLINE RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2008 DODGE AVENGER. *TR
