NHTSA Complaint #11065734 — 2017 RAM 1500

I SENT A COMPLAINT TO YOU ON MY VEHICLE LAST YEAR IN THE SUMMER ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION ELECTRONIC SHIFTER JUMPING OUT OF DRIVE AND GOING INTO REVERSE WHILE MOTIONLESS RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID "NO PROBLEMS". I HAVE SINCE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL INCIDENTS OF THE SHIFTER JUMPING OUT OF DRIVE AND ALSO NOT MOVING, JUST REVVING WHEN YOU PUT IT IN DRIVE UNLESS YOU RESIFT. I HOPE I CAN REMEMBER NOT TO TRUST THE SHIFTER OTHERWISE IT COULD RESULT IN FURTHER DAMAGER, BODILY INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED TO ME, HAD I NOT HAVE JUMPED BACK IN THE TRUCK AFTER I HAD SHIFTED IT TO PARK AND GOT OUT, I WOULD HAVE BEEN KNOCKED DOWN BY THE DOOR AND RUN OVER BY THE FRONT WHEELS. AGAIN I JUST WANT TO STATE THAT THE JUMPING OUT OF PARK HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE AND AFTER THE INCIDENT. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALER, AS I SAID AND I HAVE THE INFO ON A RO. WHEN I REPORTED IT TO DODGE THERE WERE A LITTLE EVASIVE WHEN I ASKED ABOUT RAM TRUCKS HAVING A RECALL, THE REPRESENTATIVE JUST SAID "THE RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THAT VIN". I WAS TOLD TO GO TO A DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED.
