In October 2025, FCA issued Recall A0C for the shift cable on my daughter’s 2014 Dodge Dart. Beginning shortly after the recall was announced, we contacted multiple Dodge dealerships on several occasions to have the recall repair performed. Every dealership gave us the same response: the replacement part was unavailable, and we would be contacted when it arrived. We were never contacted, and the part remains unavailable. Before the recall could be completed, the recalled shift cable failed exactly as described in the recall. The vehicle became stuck in reverse and could not be shifted properly, leaving my daughter stranded. Because the vehicle could not be fully turned off, it remained in the ACC position, which discharged the battery and required replacement. When we contacted the dealership after the failure, they again stated the recall part was unavailable. I explained that leaving the vehicle unrepaired was unacceptable because it was unsafe and inoperable. The service advisor then told us we could pay out of pocket for a shift cable that the dealership could order and install, along with replacing the battery, and then submit a reimbursement request through FCA’s recall reimbursement program. We followed the dealership’s instructions, paid for the tow, the repairs, and submitted the required documentation. FCA denied the reimbursement, stating they could not process it because the recall remedy is still unavailable. This response is contradictory because the dealership was able to obtain and install a replacement shift cable immediately once we paid for it. If a repair part was available for a customer-paid repair, it should have been available to perform the safety recall at no cost. I believe FCA failed to provide a timely recall remedy, resulting in the failure of the recalled component, an inoperable vehicle, and unnecessary out-of-pocket expenses. I request that NHTSA investigate why the recall repair remains unavailable.

I am filing a complaint regarding my 2014 Dodge Dart involving an open recall related to the vehicle's shift cable/park system. On May 29, 2026, I pulled into a parking space and attempted to shift into Reverse to straighten the vehicle. At that point, the vehicle became stuck in Drive and would not shift into Park, Reverse, or Neutral. I was unable to remove the key from the ignition, and the vehicle could not be safely operated. I had to secure the vehicle using the emergency brake and arrange for it to be towed. After contacting Dodge City of McKinney, I was advised to have the vehicle towed to the dealership for inspection. The dealership later informed me that Recall V34 had been completed in 2021 before I owned the vehicle, but that there is now an open A0C recall involving the shift cable/park system. I was advised that the recall remedy and parts are not yet available The dealership inspected the vehicle and documented that the shift cable/grommet is deteriorated. They stated in writing that the vehicle is not roadworthy and provided an estimate of approximately $756.70 to repair the condition. I was advised that I may need to pay for the repair myself and seek reimbursement later because the recall remedy is not yet available. I have opened a case with Stellantis Customer Care and have written documentation from the dealership confirming the vehicle is not roadworthy due to the shift cable condition. My concern is that the vehicle has been deemed unsafe to drive due to a condition involving a system that is currently subject to an open safety recall, yet I am being told to pay out of pocket for repairs while the official recall remedy remains unavailable. I am requesting review of the recall status, clarification of my rights, and assistance in resolving this matter without requiring out-of-pocket payment for a potentially recall-related repair.

My transmission shift cable disconnected and prevented me from shifting my vehicle into park which is preventing my vehicle from shifting or my vehicle even being able to start. When calling the recall hotline for Dodge they said that a remedy is not available and there is nothing that they can do to repair it temporarily until a permanent fix is available. This recall has been acti6since October of 2025 but there still is no fix for the issue. So now I am supposed to go without a vehicle for however many more months which is going to cost me my job because I do not have a vehicle that will start or run. Dodge needs to get on this issue ASAP because I cannot afford to wait for a remedy.

The vehicle's shifter cable brushing was what was originally recalled. The dealership I visited informed me that the vehicle still has concerns about not being able to recognize when the car is in park. This means the vehicle is still unsafe to drive and a remedy has not yet been released for this. The dealership in question was Sky Dodge in Provo UT.
