Consumer Description

MY 2012 DODGE RAM 1500 IS AFFECTED BY THE NHTSA RECALL 17V-821 (T79 MANUFACTURER RECALL) I HAVE HAD 2 INSTANCES OF MY TRUCK COMING OUT OF PARK IN THE LAST MONTH, I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS RECALL ONLINE, CHRYSLER/DODGE/RAM HAS NOT NOTIFIED ME OF THE RECALL AT ALL. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THE MAN I SPOKE TO SAID THERE IS NO FIX CURRENTLY AND IT COULD BE SEPTEMBER OR LATER BEFORE THERE IS. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO GIVE THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER OR HAVE THE DEALER BUY IT BACK AS I DONT FIND IT SAFE TO PARK THE VEHICLE ANYWHERE AS IT COULD ROLL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
