I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN THIS CAR SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASED IT. DODGE HAS REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION TWICE AND NOW IT IS GOING ON ITS THIRD. THE DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHECK THE VEHICLE 3/18/00 AND CLAIMS TRANSMISSION IS FINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPUTABLE TRANSMISSION ESTABLISHMENT AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS ON ITS WAY OUT. I AM CURRENTLY BRINGING THE CAR BACK TO DODGE AND DEMANDING THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM. *AK
AS I WAS BACKING SLOWLY IN MY DRIVEWAY, MY CAR STOPPED AS IF I STUCK IT IN NEUTRAL. AT THAT POINT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. I CALLED UP REEDMAN AND CHRYSLER CORPORATION TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM CHECKED. CHRYLSER TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT A RECALL AND IT'S NOT COVERED SINCE MY WARRANTY IS UP. AT THAT TIME I EXPLAINED MY CAR WAS BROUGHT BACK 2 TIMES ALREADY FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME I HAD PROBLEMS WAS A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT MY CAR. THE SECOND TIME (WHICH WAS ONLY AT 19,000MILES) THEY REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION AND DID NOT REPLACE IT. CHRYSLER FEELS THAT IT IS PARTIAL MY RESPONSLIBLITY TO PAY SINCE MY 5YEAR,70THOUSAND MILE WARRANTY IS UP. AT THIS TIME, MY MILAGE AS YOU CAN SEE IS ONLY AT 36,000MI
WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT APPROXIMATELY 40/45 MILES PER HOUR, THE TRANSMISSION QUIT.
