Consumer Description
I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND WENT TO SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. MY SHIFT WOULD MOVE, BUT MY CAR WAS STUCK IN NEUTRAL. I HAD TO PUSH MY CAR OUT OF THE ROAD AND SINCE IT WAS NOT IN PARK, COULD NOT COMPLETELY TURN IT OFF AND REMOVE MY KEY. I SET THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND HAD TO DISCONNECT BATTERY SINCE ACCESSORIES WOULD NOT TURN OFF. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP ON 08/09/2019. PER RECALL, THE RECALL COVERS DODGE DART COMPACT CARS FROM 2013 THROUGH 2016 WITH SIX-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS. THE COMPANY SAYS A BUSHING CAN FAIL, CAUSING THE SHIFTER CABLE TO COME LOOSE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THAT MEANS WHEN A DRIVER SHIFTS TO PARK OR ANOTHER GEAR, THE GEAR MAY NOT CHANGE AND THE CAR COULD ROLL AWAY. PARTS FOR RECALL WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPTEMBER. DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIX AT THIS TIME AND MANUFACTURER OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE.
