4 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem

Failure Date: 06/15/2017

The transmission went out. It was fine then then lights started flickering inside and out and then when I turned the car off and tried to turn it back on it was completely dead. No lights or power at all. Had to get a jump start. Then when I tried to go it was revving up but wouldnt move and then all of a sudden jumped into gear real hard. It had significant loss of power and would get up and go. It's real slow from the start and it dangerous driving it because it will just rev up and not move then jump into gear very hard. It has almost thrown my car into the back of other cars because it jumps so bad I to gear all of a sudden. Then when you try to get out of the way of another car coming g it sometimes barely moves and it very dangerous. It has been stuck in 2nd gear ever since. It had a lot of loss of power. I had the transmission replace 2 times and both including the original are all stuck in 2nd gear. Also when I turn the car it makes a loud popping cracking sound by the wheels. Like it's going to break. Also going over speed bumps it's really loud and squeaky.

Failure Date: 08/29/2014

I parked the car in the garage and when I tried to back out the car, the gear was stuck in park. The manual said to remove and the small storage bin and press the pink tab. Nothing happened. I called aaa towing and they came out. He removed the entire top portion around the gear shift and said to release the gear shift use your finger along the cable and push the first thing you feel. It worked and each time I remove from park, I have to run my finger along the cable and push the button. He said that a pink $14 part is defective and needs to be replaced. I called the Chrysler dealer and they quoted me $450 to repair. I called my auto shop in la quinta and they quoted $120. Everyone said that this occurs all the time on the Chrysler 300.

11 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem

Failure Date: 08/31/2011

I have a 2007 Chrysler 300, went ou this am to go to work and the gear shift is stuck in park. Had to get a ride into work. Got on line and found pages of this same problem on multiple cars from Chrysler. Saw the k39 notification form called Chrysler, my VIN is not listed, they can't help me out. Per other people will cost $300-600. 00 to fix out of my pocket. This is a defective part and needs to be recalled on any vehicle it affects. Called the parts dept. At Chrysler the part is 85 cents. But the dealer will charge you an arm and a leg for the labor to do it. This is ridiculous, I'm disgusted with Chrysler right now. They need to step up and do the right thing, their customer value has gone out the window. I will not be buying any more cars from them in the future.
