Overview
- The recall covers 2013–2016 model-year Dodge Darts in the U.S., totaling 298,439 vehicles under NHTSA campaign 25V674000.
- A transmission shifter cable can detach from the transmission, preventing engagement of Park and allowing unintended vehicle movement.
- Stellantis will notify dealers on Oct. 16 and mail initial owner letters Nov. 6–13, with a second notice to follow once the remedy is available.
- The action revisits an April 2019 recall (19V293000) after new reports showed some vehicles experienced disconnects despite the earlier fix.
- The company estimates about 2% of vehicles may be affected and reports no known accidents or injuries; owners are advised to set the parking brake and verify Park until repairs are completed.
