The "Vehicle Not in Park" warning message is a safety feature designed to prevent accidents and injuries. It's a standard safety feature in most modern vehicles, including the Dodge Charger. Here's what it's intended to do: When the vehicle is shifted out of Park (P) and the transmission is not fully engaged, the system will display a "Vehicle Not in Park" warning message on the dashboard. This message is triggered by the vehicle's Transmission Control Module (TCM) or Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system, which monitors the vehicle's gear position and transmission status. The purpose of this warning is to alert the driver that the vehicle is not properly secured and may roll or move unexpectedly, potentially causing an accident or injury. This can happen when: The parking brake is not engaged: If the parking brake is not fully engaged or is released before shifting into gear, the system will detect this and display the warning message. The transmission is not fully engaged: If the transmission is not fully engaged in gear, such as when shifting from Park to Reverse or Drive, the system will detect this and display the warning message. The vehicle is not properly positioned: If the vehicle is not properly positioned on a level surface or on a slope, the system may detect this and display the warning message. To resolve the "Vehicle Not in Park" issue on your Dodge Charger: Ensure the parking brake is fully engaged. Check that the transmission is fully engaged in gear (e.g., Park, Reverse, Drive). Make sure the vehicle is properly positioned on a level surface or adjust it to a flat surface. The car is in park but will not turn off instead it runs until it decides it wants to turn off which can take several hours. This is a safety concern and issue that needs to resolved we pay to much money on these vehicles to deal with crappy problems due to bad mechanical issues and features

I'm driving mi dogde hard steering

While driving the vehicle the steering became very difficult, to the point I could not control my car and had to pull over. The steering seem to have locked up while driving. I had it towed to auto repair shop which I was advised I had to change the power steering pump. That's not in my budget.

Back up camera malfunction. This problem was recalled for 2015 models however my car is 2013. This still is a safety issue. Can not see over trunk without camera.

The shifter module that was replaced under recall S27/NHTSA 16V-240 in August of 2016 started shifting itself into sport mode automatically and without warning in November of 2022. I took my car to James River Chrysler Dodge in Ozark, Mo in November to have the shifter module replaced. The dealership could not find a new Mopar shifter module because Chrysler stopped making them. There is no after market shifter modules available for this specific shifter module so James River Chrysler placed a used shifter module in my car. The used shifter module is automatically shifting the car into a lower sports mode gear without warning also which is a safety hazard for me, my family, and other individuals who are traveling in a proximity around me. I cannot purchase a new Mopar or after market shifter module for my car because no one is manufacturing this part. I want to report this safety hazard because there are numerous Dodge Chargers on the road that will potentially have the same situation as me in the very near future. Can Chrysler be held accountable to manufacture the shifter module to keep everyone safe on the roads? Thank you, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
