Component: Power Train > Automatic Transmission > Park/neutral Start Switch
Manufacturer: Chrysler Corporation
Description:
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. the adjustment of the cable connecting the console shifter mechanism to the ignition key can cause a trapped key condition which can result in a low force required to depress the shift button. a combination of applying a mis-adjusted release button with a low force attempt to shift out of park with the key in the locked position, can break the connecting pin in the shifter.
Consequencs:
If this happens, the "ignition-park" interlock system will be nonfunctional.
Notes:
Dealers will inspect for proper operation of the system. any vehicles that are not functional after the inspection will have the shift mechanism and cable replaced with a "self-adjusting" design.
