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.
Risk: IF THIS HAPPENS, THE "IGNITION-PARK" INTERLOCK SYSTEM WILL BE NONFUNCTIONAL.
Fix: 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.

1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS, 2.5L 6CYLN ENGINE, BOUGHT FOR OUR TWIN DAUGHTERS 16TH BIRTHDAY AND WITHIN 2 DAYS OF GETTING THE CAR, THEY WERE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND THE ENGINE STALLED RESULTING IN THEM LOSING PS/PB CONTROL., THE CAR HAS REPEATEDLY STALLED WHILE THEY HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND THEY CAME VERY CLOSE TO HITTING A MAN AS HE WAS WALKING ALONG THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THIS ENGINE FAILURE AND LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. THIS CAR ALSO HAS A PROBLEM STARTING, MY HUSBAND IS A SENIOR AUTOMOTIVE TECHINICIAN AND HE FOUND THAT WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR THERE IS NO SPARK, HAVE WE SOLVED THE PROBLEM AS TO WHAT TO REPLACE? NO, IT COULD BE A NUMBER OF POSSIBILITIES FROM THE COIL TO THE COMPUTER CHIP. OUR DAUGHTERS DROVE THE CAR FOR 9 DAYS AND NOW IT SITS WAITING TO GET FIXED, DO WE WANT TO GO THROUGH THE EXPENSE OF GUESSING WHAT PART IT NEEDS TO RUN AGAIN? NO!! WHEN REVIEWING THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CAR IN GENERAL, I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM, IT IS A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN, MAYBE YOUR WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED BEFORE YOU WILL TAKE ANY ACTION ON THIS, I THINK IT IS VERY BAD BUSINESS TO NOT EVEN KNOW WHY THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING. I HOPE FOR OTHER PEOPLES SAKE THAT NO ONE GETS HURT OVER THIS, UNLIKE YOUR COMPANY THAT ONLY CARES ABOUT THE BIG BUCKS INVOLVED. DO A JOB RIGHT OR DON'T DO IT AT ALL. I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY A CHRYSLER PRODUCT AND WILL LET ANYONE KNOW WHO IS IN THE MARKETPLACE FOR A CAR.*AK
