Description of the problem | When shifting from reverse to drive the vehicle will lunge forward and will only stop when you press on the brakes so hard as to stall engine. It seem that the vehicle "drops the clutch" into 2nd gear when this happens. Dealer not able to duplicate problem. Chrysler refers consumer to dealer. Has happened to cunsumer many times, but consumer has not pursued issue further with dealer as they charge for each evaluation/complaint. Consumer is afraid that an accident will occur if this continues. *ak |
