I have reported my car not going in the gear selected and instead going into neutral or park. It has also driven forward when in park. There has also been issues with the auto park not always working if door is opened and the car is in gear. Now I am being told my car even though it came with this safety feature was not supposed to come with it, and Dodge is looking to remove this feature. Dodge has also referred to these safety issues as characteristics of my car. When their is a safety defect it cant be a characteristic that can be overlooked. My car now has been in the shop for 37 days now and unable to be repaired. See also ODI 11041523.
