NHTSA recall 07V555000
Power Train · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
Details
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.
Why it matters: 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.
