Ford recall

I am going to have to say I am sorry. I did see the recall for FCA vehicles, but only briefly glimpsed at the article and figured it had to do with the dial knob shift selector. I see now that it is totally different. My bad. :(

That list of links took a while to compose.......and as a DODGE Ram owner I THANK-YOU.

Now I can subscribe to this post and have a reference for ALL the DODGE Ram recalls that affect my truck.

Couldn't care less about the other brand recalls as I don't own one at this time.

Sad thing is.............RECALLS have become the way of MFG. in the 21st Century.
Even my dang toaster had a recall.

Not comprehensive (it's possible I've missed topics that didn't include "recall" in them, or didn't get mean), and doesn't include all the bashing that has infected many, many other threads. But it seems there are TWO primary players, mostly evenly matched.

So maybe (myself included), we can all just agree to get along?

But it makes this forum so entertaining. After a while you can predict who will react and what they will say.

so was my 60' Rambler (letters were changed around to read BERMLER) with same said buttons. Used to take the engine apart after school and it was back together before dinner..

Remember the local dealing saying: "Don't be a gambler buy a Rambler"

Hey......

My 1962 Plymouth Fury was a sweet ride :B

Ha! I do remember my Dad taking a butter knife with all the time so he could unstick those buttons when they wouldn't work.

That dial selector for the transmission was a bad idea from the start. But, give an idiot a rubber mallet, and I bet he'd find a way to break and anvil.

Too bad it is not the dial selector being recalled. It is the ZF T selector, some people are not smart enough to look at the read out on the dash to see what gear they are or are not in. It's much earlier nowadays to blame the manufacturers for your own actions then it is to take responsibility for them.

But it does give the weak minded people something to talk about. Oh BTW Nutz how many vehicles has GM recalled? Oups I didn't go there did I? LMAO.

The affected vehicles are the 300, Charger, Durango and Grand Cherokee all with the ZF 8 speed and ZF T handle floor shifter.
