What owners wrote
When shifting vehicle from drive to reverse, the vehicle just went out of control in reverse. Foot was not on the accelerator when the vehicle picked up speed, resulting in the consumer hitting a pole. The consumer was injured in this accident. Please provide any further details.
Transmission behaves erratically. First symptoms were revving and failure to go into gear in cool (below 60) or rainy weather. Three trips to the dodge service center and several phone calls to daimler-chrysler have done no good! On my way to work the transmission stuck in 3rd gear and would not decelerate. I had to veer into an empty lot at @ 40 MPH to avoid a collision with another vehicle. My three small children were in the van with me.
