What's wrong, in plain English

On some Durango Pursuit police vehicles with a dashboard-mounted gear shifter, the shifter boot may interfere with the shifter and cause it to slip out of gear while the vehicle is being driven. When this happens, the vehicle can suddenly lose the power that drives the wheels, which increases the risk of a crash.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is affected.
2. Contact a dealer, or call FCA US customer service at 1-800-853-1403.
3. The repair (replacing the shifter boot) is free.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?
