Description of the problem | I bought a used 2012 dodge charger and had everything checked out by big o tires prior to purchase. A few days later, my husband was stuck at the gas station because the gear shift would not come out of park. This has happened multiple times in various places and weather conditions and the dealer cannot figure out what is wrong. The brake switch is good, we had the whole gear shift assembly replaced and still have the problem. Upon watching you tube videos, it must be the transmission interlock switch (the infamous pink plastic piece) that dodge/chrysler owners are having issues with. There was a recall on 2005-07 dodge chargers to replace the pink transmission shift interlock latch that breaks and prevents vehicles from shifting out of park. My 2012 and many vehicles after 2007 are also affected. I am currently waiting for the dealer to replace this part. I would like to request this recall to be extended to include model years after 2007, to include my 2012 charger. |
