“Mom handed the car over to me with 58,000 miles and said she always had a difficult time getting the car out of park especiallly on an incline. I began having problems as well and had the cable replaced in the spring of last year. The mechanic said this has been an on-going problem with dodges and suggested I apply the emergency brake before I put it into park. At $160. I thought the problem solved until it started again, this time stranding me in a parking lot several miles from home. The repair this time was done after the car was towed to a mechanic. …”
