How do I turn off autopark on my Dodge Ram?
I recently got a newer Dodge Ram and it has an annoying autopark feature where the truck will automatically go into park and get locked in that way if you open the door while in Drive. Does anyone know how I can turn autopark off in my Dodge Ram?

I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your
Dodge Ram’s
autopark feature. A lot of Ram owners have had similar frustrations. To release the lock and turn off autopark in your Dodge Ram, shift into park, press down on the brake pedal, and push forward on the parking brake, releasing the lock.
Unfortunately, this only disables autopark for that particular instance. It doesn’t permanently disable the feature. It’s a somewhat annoying involuntary safety feature. This can be really problematic, especially if you need to lean out for a better view while towing a load with your truck.
Luckily, there’s an easy workaround. The autopark will not engage if the driver’s seatbelt is buckled. If you need to lean out while parking your truck and don’t want the autopark to trigger, make sure the seatbelt is buckled.
The autopark may be a less helpful safety feature, but quality
car insurance
is not. To make sure you and your Dodge
are protected, you’ll want to have good insurance coverage–and review that coverage at least once a year to avoid overpaying.That’s where
