Chrysler 2005 gear shift gets stuck in park causing you to replace gear shift. Have replaced 3 gearshifts in 6 years. Water gets inside transmission causing the purchase of a new transmission anywhere from 40,000 to 95,000 miles.

After having the tow hitch installed by the dealership, the consumer was then informed that there wasn't load leveling shocks for this truck. This makes towing a trailer impossible. The owners manual indicates if equipped, load leveling shocks can be installed. This information is incorrect.
