Default Gear selector change/ no brake?

Does anyone know if this is a Dodge recall... Usually you have to step on the brake to change from Park to Drive. My truck is worn out or broke... because I do not need to step on the brake. Any help is appreciated

Dont know of any recall. however it can be and sounds like a faulty safety neutral switch. Can you start the truck in Gear?

I have not tried to start it in gear. I will see tomorrow. And the truck is in Florida, so it only gets down to 30 degrees at night during the winter. Currently its 80 during the day and 50-60 at night
