Description of the problem | On august 23rd, i was taking my sister in law back home from our house. On the way back from her house i decided to wash my 15 chrysler 200. When i as done with that task and got back in the car. I noticed my brakes wouldn't disengage. I tried to do the maintenance release through the car's radio and it wouldn't let me do it. This is the first time i had any problem with the car. So i then tried to turn off and on the car and that didn't work. So then i thou maybe if i drove it, they would release and just as i hit 45mph, they did. And started to preform normally. An hour later, i stopped by my mother-in-law house to take car of her dogs like i've been doing for the last few days and when i was ready to leave. The car battery died. I'm not quite sure how cause i don't leave my lights on ever. And i sat there to wait for someone to tow it to the store with car battery and had them switched. They came to tell me that they couldn't get the car out of gear. So i went out there to see what was wrong and they were right. The car was running fine but i couldn't get it to change gears. On my dashboard. My small screen said to service the park brake and i thought, what that the brakes got to do with it's transmission. I looked and saw my mileage, 93,568, was blinking and my gear indicator as n. I'm pretty sure that the car was in park the hole time they where changing out the battery. The shifter nob was able to turn but i wasn't changing the gear either. So after that, i released the parking brake, that's somehow made the care show it was in drive, and had it towed back to my mother-in-law house. |
