Dodge CHALLENGER 2017 Owner's Manual page 479

NOTE: For vehicles with automatic transmission: Shifts
between DRIVE and REVERSE can only be achieved at
wheel speeds of 5 mph (8 km/h) or less. Whenever the
transmission remains in NEUTRAL for more than 2
seconds, you must press the brake pedal to engage
DRIVE or REVERSE.
CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to
transmission overheating and failure. Allow the en-
gine to idle with the transmission in NEUTRAL for at
least one minute after every five rocking-motion
cycles. This will minimize overheating and reduce
the risk of clutch or transmission failure during
prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 477
NOTE: Press the ESC Off switch to place the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system in Partial Off mode
before rocking the vehicle. Refer to "Electronic Brake
Control" in "Starting And Operating" for further infor-
mation. Once the vehicle has been freed, press the ESC
Off switch again to restore ESC On mode.
CAUTION!
• When "rocking" a stuck vehicle by shifting be-
tween DRIVE / 1ST GEAR and REVERSE, do not
spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or
drivetrain damage may result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast
may lead to transmission overheating and failure.
It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels
above 30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no trans-
mission shifting occurring).
