What NHTSA recorded

On certain 4-wheel drive pickup trucks, the totally integrated power module (tipm) may contain incorrect transfer case calibration set points, potentially resulting in inadvertent transfer case default to neutral.

Possible consequence

If this occurs and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle may roll away and cause a crash without warning.

Remedy

Dealers will reprogram the tipm with new software that prevents the potential for this condition. The recall began on november 7, 2005. Owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
