Chrysler recalling 575,417 vehicles

US based automaker Chrysler has announced that they are now recalling around 575,417 vehicles.

This recall is related to long-term wear on the gear shift assembly.

It involves Chrysler models including 2001 to 2002 model-year Dodge Dakota pickup trucks, Durango sports utility vehicles and Ram van models and 2002 model-year Ram pickup trucks.

Chrysler added in a statement related to this latest recall: “In a limited number of cases, long-term wear on the shift assembly can erode the height of the shift blocker, creating the potential that the vehicle could shift out of park without the key in the ignition.”

The company admitted that they have received some complaints related to this problem in their cars but no fatal injuries have been reported.
