If the "kickdown" cable broke or became disconnected, wouldn't this be what would happen? A long time ago I had an '81 Buick Skylark. It was a total piece of ****, and the kickdown cable broke when I was about 100 miles away from home. It would go to redline in every gear before it would shift. What I did was pull the cable out so it shifted like it were under light throttle, and taped it in place with a ****load of black tape. I'm not sure if this applies in this case, but it was a good story, anyway.
No. Dodges dont have a failsafe. When the cable is disconnected it gives little to no TV pressure and should stack shift, or shift very softly and weird.
