problem #2

PT Cruiser

  • 46,587 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Chrysler PT CRUISER. The contact stated that the gear shift selector remained stuck in park and she was unable to shift into any other gear. The dealer informed the contact that there was liquid in the transmission shifter. This liquid allowed the shifter cable to slip off and caused the failure. The dealer repaired the shifter cable, but the failure recurred a second time. The manufacturer was aware of the failure. The failure and current mileages were 46,587.
