Description of the problem | My car was in park in the parking lot of my children's daycare center. I spilled tea in the cup holder, which caused the gear shifter to short out and disable my vehicle. Working for an electronics supplier, i've been informed that this is a safety issue which could cause the vehicle to stop driving if liquid were to short this circuit out while driving. Chrysler is stating that this is not their issue, which is completely false, as it is a design issue. |
