SUMMARY:
Chrysler is recalling 20,283 M/Y 2006-2009 Charger and Magnum vehicles built with the police package equipped with column shifter. The gearshift
cable may become disengaged from the steering column mounting bracket and cause an incorrect transmission gearshift position display.
CONSEQUENCE:
This could allow the vehicle to move inadvertently and cause a crash without warning.
REMEDY:
Dealers will add a redundant locking mechanism to the gearshift cable at the mounting bracket to ensure proper retention and shift linkage function. The
recall is expected to begin during November 2008. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
