POWER TRAIN
I WENT TO USE MY CAR AND I COULD NOT GET IT OUT OF PARK. THE SHIFT LEVER WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK. I CHECK ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT THE PINK PLASTIC PART INSIDE THE SHIFT BASE HAS A SMALL PLASTIC HOOK THE BRAKES OFF AND THE SPRING COME OFF IN SIDE AND YOU CAN NOT GET YOUR OUT OF PARK. I HAD TO GO TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER SHIP AND ASK THEM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THE GUY SAID THAT CHRYSLER WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT WAS NOT DOING A RECALL ON THE PROBLEM. SO I HAD TO BUY THE PART AND FIX IT MY SELF. MY CAR WAS DOWN FOR 2 DAYS. I COULD NOT HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK TO GET IT ON THE TOW TRUCK.

THE INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASH COME ON WHILE DRIVING, WITCH CAUSES THE HEAD LIGHTS TO GO OUT. I THINK THIS IS A VERY DANGERS THING TO HAPPEN. CHRYSLER CORPORATION SHOULD RECALL THIS MODEL CAR AND TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE I HAVE AN ACCIDENT.
