CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES- WHEN EMERGENCY BREAK IS SET AND THE ENGINE IS OFF AND IN PARK THE CAR WILL STILL ROLL BY ITSELF. COMPLAINED TO DODGE, DODGE SAYS SOFTWARE ISSUE AND IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. STILL HAPPENING, I AM LUCKY IT DID NOT HIT A CAR BUT TODAY (2/22/18) IT HIT A TREE- ROLLED 2 FEET BACK. THERE IS A RECALL OUT THERE FOR THE 2017 MODEL BUT I REALLY FEEL MULTIPLE YEARS ARE EFFECTED. ACTUAL CAR IS A SCAT PACK. WHEN I LOOKED ON LINE SEVERAL PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH A CHALLENGER ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE, ALSO WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. NOW I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE BODY WORK BUT I FEEL DODGE SHOULD BE LIABLE.
