2001–2002 Dodge Dakota & 2001–2002 Dodge Durango + 2 more recall: powertrain & transmission
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain VAN and Pickup trucks equipped with automatic transmissions, the ignition/park shift interlock system may become inoperative. This CAN allow the shifter to be moved out of the "park" position with the ignition key removed (or in the "lock" position). This CAN also allow the ignition key to be removed when the shifter has not been placed in the "park" position.
💥 The risk
Either of these conditions could allow the vehicle to roll away causing a crash without warning.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the gearshift blocker and bracket assembly free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during january 2008. Owners may contact chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
