Description of the problem	Leased car on 9/4/2015. Someone at dealership had been driving it so it had 4800 miles when i got it. On 10/3/2015, got in car, started engine, shifted car into drive and it revved but didn't move. Service parking brake light came on. I hadn't touched the parking brake. Turned car off and on again. Same thing... Car wouldn't shift into gear, then got "service transmission" message and check engine light. Repeated turning car on and off several times, shifting. No response. Turned car on, put in reverse. Heard a loud thunk and the car moved backward. Put in drive, heard a loud thunk again, and car moved sluggishly forward. Limped home, car not responding as normal to pressure of gas pedal, praying i got there without the car dying. Called service at 8 a. M. At 9:30 a. M., went to leave house to take car to dealership. Backed down the driveway, put car in drive, no response. I thought i had gone down my driveway in reverse, but it must have just rolled down since we live on a hill. I turned car off and on again, put car in reverse. Loud thunk, like the bottom was falling out of car, and car lurched into reverse. Shifted to drive, another thunk and lurch. Pulled car to side of street and called chrylser roadside assistance for tow. Waited 5 hours for tow truck which came from another state. Really?! Car is now at dealership, got call today 10/6 that the valve body on the transmission needs to be replaced and that it is a 7-10 day wait because the part is backordered. (after reading all these complaints, i now know why). I've paid two months lease on the vehicle, have been able to drive it for 3 weeks, and 500 miles. Current mileage is approximately 5300.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
