2 issues-the power train-i don't think it was ever fixed as my gearshift lever indicator is not in the gear it indicates-can this still be fixed under the recall-2nd problem-i can be driving down the road and the truck just shuts itself off without warning-sometimes it will restart after sitting a few minutes but yesterday i had to have it towed with my 74 yr. old mother-i have been on the freeway and had the shutdown occur-i believe this is a safety concern-i am not the first owner but the guy i got it from told me about this issue after i had bought it -i thought the fuel filter may be plugged and had a complete tune-up-still the problem continues-is there any other complaints on this vehicle-thanks barb *tr | |||

I was backing out of my garage on my way to a job interview, when i realized i forgot something . i drove back in the garage, put the shifter in park and i stepped out of the truck. no sooner had i gotten around the truck door when the truck just started backing up by itself. i attempted to jump back in to stop it because i did not want the truck to hit somebody . but the momentum was to quick and the door slammed against me hitting the left side of my body,both my knees were knocked together,causing bruising and some swelling. i also had a small cut on my right index finger when the door hit me,it pushed my arm back and my finger hit my front teeth. i have found out that thereis a recall for this very same problem(park-to-reverse). this is the first time since i 've had the vehicle in my possession that this has happened. i called a dodge dealership in b.r. and they told me this vin number was not included in the recall. the truck was bought used so i do not know if the previous owner had a problem with the park-to-reverse.since the accident, i have not been able to work and have been suffering with a lot of back,leg,and knee pain. | |||

This truck has a 5 speed manual transmission. the truck will start in gear without having to depress the clutch. from what i can find out there was no switch put on this model to prevent this. *ak |
