My husband had this problem today and thanks to your video, he fixed the problem by following every step. He was quoted $ 600-800 by the dealership and he spent $12 for that pink plastic part. My hats off to you Sir! God bless you!

Your video was the easiest and fastest, thank you! My cousin told me to have it towed to a shop that would charge me $200 just to look at it. A friend said he would do it but he was trying to find the time because he watched a video that required the entire console to be removed. With your video and the grace of GOD I did it myself. I struggled a bit because I didn't have the right tools but I have the right tools now. As a woman I really appreciate easy to follow car repair videos like yours. Thanks again for your awesomeness! 😍

This is the BEST video on this topic. The dealer insisted I needed a whole new shifter and wanted to charge over 400$ but I watched this video and was able to fix it by getting that little part for about 12 bucks on Amazon. The only difference is I have a Chrysler 300 and in the bottom of the arm rest there are three bolts that need to be unscrewed because it wont allow for the shifter to come out without lifting the arm rest a little. Thanks for this video.
@sifiguy60588 жыл бұрын
Thanks you sir! you just saved me well over 250 bucks. for those of you that have a Chrysler 300, you have to remove 3 screws inside the bottom of the armrest compartment, slide it back, ( it doesn't have to come completely off) and lift up on it while you maneuver the shift control out. the replacement part will run you bought 10 to 12 bucks at the dealership.

Thank you for your steady approach to the problem. I couldn't go to get a part so I made a patch using 4 rounds of small braided stainless steel wire.

Thanks so much, I was able to follow this to repair my 2006 300 Touring Sedan!. One problem was getting the shift assembly out due to my model having a spring loaded cover for the double drink holder. I was able to maneuver it out only after removing the 3 screws inside the center console that hold it down, then raising the back end of the console to create a bit more space. I greatly appreciate this video tutorial. It is the best of many that I reviewed before starting.

I bought the metal replacement piece instead of the plastic one and reused the old spring. Thanks for taking the time to post this video to KZfaq.

This video was a great help. I just changed the latch on my 300c here in the UK, replacing the pink plastic one for a metal one. I did it before it went bad; it would only happen at a really inconvenient time otherwise. As mentioned in other comments, I had to remove the three bolts under the arm rest and lift it to enable removal of the unit. Also I was advised to put a bit of lithium grease on the shaft before putting the metal one on. Many thanks.

Thanks for this thorough and helpful video, saved me hundreds of dollars and the part is only $17 on Amazon. Removing the shifter knob gives more room to replace the part. Pry the plastic oval trim at the base of the shift knob downward using a flat screwdriver, then unscrew the knob counter clockwise about 15 turns to remove the knob then you can completely remove the PRNDL plate and whole top cover. Took me about 90 minutes to do the job with my 13-year old son.

One modification added .10 wire to spring and wrapped in around lever to reinforce spring and lessen the tension on the plastic spring hook. Also removal of console was necessary to pull shifter; 3 bolts & 2 screws. One quick remedy to shift out park is to pull chrome trim piece, locate cable for the brake lockout, depress brake pedal, push cable to the left with a screwdriver pull shifter into gear.

Thank you so much for this video! I saved myself hundreds of dollars by doing this myself. I found that I had to remove the bolts in the arm rest in order to get the shifter out of its space. I also ordered a metal unit to replace the broken pink unit.

This happened to my 11 year old Charger today. I stopped off at a store to buy a scratch ticket and when back out to my car and the shifter would only stay in Park. I called AAA and the guy who arrived knew exactly what the problem was. He put a screw driver down inside so I could get it into drive and he followed me to my mechanic. I don't know how readily available that front pink switch is but hopefully it will only be 1 hr of labor involved. Thanks for explaining everything so well. I didn't realize there was so much going on under that shifter cover !
