The short answer
NHTSA received Shyft Group’s report on Sep 28, 2020. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 27, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
The driver may be unaware of the actual gear position and unintended vehicle movement can occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
Shyft Group (Shyft) is recalling certain 2015-2019 Utilimaster Ram ProMaster fleet vehicles.
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.
