What is being recalled

Prime-Time Specialty Vehicles (Prime-Time) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Paratransit vehicles equipped with 3.6L engines. The transmission shifter cable may separate and disconnect from the transmission, causing the vehicle to not perform shifts intended by the driver and the gear shift lever position not matching the actual transmission gear.

Why it is dangerous

The driver may be unaware of the actual gear position and unintended vehicle movement can occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Prime-Time will notify owners instructing them to take their vehicles to Ram dealers for the necessary repairs, free of charge. Owners may contact Prime-Time customer service at 1-574-293-9191. Prime-Time's number for this recall is W00.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 20V-582 when calling a dealer.
