EVERY TIME I EITHER TURN A CORNER OR BACK OUT OF MY DRIVE THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT LIGHTS COME ON AND STAY ON. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO SAFETY ISSUE, BUT I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY MAKE AND YEAR BUT I MISSED THE RECALL BY A MONTH. AND SINCE THIS IS SO, DID THEY FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURER? ALSO, I WILL HAVE TO HAD TO FIX MY INTERLOCK SHIFT NOW FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO YEARS COME THIS THURSDAY. I AM WORRIED ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO GET MY CAR OUT OF PARK AND MOVE OUT OF THE WAY IN AN EMERGENCY. I AM GOING TO UTILIZE SOCIAL MEDIA TO SEE IF I CAN GET MORE PEOPLE TO COMPLAIN TO YOU ALL AND ALSO TO CHRYSLER TO GET THIS COSTLY AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM FIXED. *TR
