I have spent considerable time working with rancho Dodge in san diego w/O success. The parking brake assembly still does not work, it failed originally under warranty, the repalced parts, had my car for weeks at a time and it still does not work.

My car was doing fine until I went to back up and it wouldn't come out of park. I had never had it happen before. I couldn't get it out of park. No warning lights and no noise just wouldn't come out of park. The shifter needed to be replaced. A shifter assembly needed replaced
